Hello I am no an OSX user, but I know that OSX generally don't use these menu icons. It is also described in [1], see the section "Using Icons in Menus".
I have also seen in Gnome 3 that it has been removed. I cann't see the menus in my Gnome setup, even though I try to enable it via gconf. I don't like this, I like the icons in the menu, they make it easier to find the wanted menu entry by looking at these small pictograms. IMO this is a matter of fact that some designers don't actually use their computer.
