Shouldn't this be an all or nothing approach? I'm not attached to the
icons myself but it does look a bit inconsistent in these menus to
have some items without icons and other items (or submenu items) with
icons. It makes it look, at least to me, as if the icons are missing
by accident. Maybe it is worth discussing with upstream whether there
is widespread agreement on the right approach, and following that.
