gnome's panel does not use menu files, but the *.desktop files in /usr/share/applications/. The code used to interpret the *.desktop files contains some "magic" to find the icons in /usr/share/icons, display the application's title in the correct language etc. The menu files are more simple. For example they are used by Debian's openbox package to generate a static xml menu (note: the package in Debian does not support icons in the menu without some minor patches, see #645944, #645952). So testcases are window managers supporting icons, which use the debian menu system. -- Sebastian
