The described workaround was for Karmic and is not available in Lucid.
In Lucid, you need to use the Configuration Editor for key
'/desktop/gnome/interface/menus_have_icons'. Just tick the box and all
menu's will show the corresponding icons.

About the bug itself, I admit I was a bit brief about my reasons for reopening 
it. Let me explain:
The icons describe the type of secret, very much like the bookmark icons in the 
Places menu. It gives the user additional information about the secret. For 
example, I have a credit card (Credit Card) and online banking credentials 
(Website) from a bank. Both have the entry name 'BankName', leaving the icon to 
discern between the two secrets. This is significantly different from the icons 
next to common menu entries like 'Save', 'Cut', 'Copy' in common menu's, where 
the icon conveys the same information as the text next to it and is therefore 
redundant.

The reason I referred to the gSTM bug fix was because I initially did
not realize this bug could be solved programatically, and the fix showed
me otherwise.
