I don't know about the mac, but in those cases where windoze apps use icons
as menu items, it's very confusing, counter-intuitive and outright crappy.
looks very much like a programer liked the idea and threw it in without
asking someone else.
as I said, I don't know about the mac. maybe there is a way to do this in a
very good way - but if it's any close to the way it's done on windoze, then
I don't think it's a good idea.
the main question maybe is: why an icon? all the rest of the menubar is
text, so why suddenly an icon? unless there is a very good reason to break
the general style for this menu item, I don't think it should be done.
