Thank you for trying to help to make Ubuntu, Xfce and GTK+ better by reporting
this bug. However, this is expected behaviour, mostly for the sake of
consistency.
It would look ugly if entries with icons would suddenly be outlined differently
than entries without icons, and different menus would look ugly as well. It was
done this way because of the recent decision in GNOME/GTK+ -- I can't remember
where exactly it came from -- to disable menu icons by default. However, some
entries do have an icon because those are deemed important or of great use.
Those are put in the extra space in front of the text of the menu entries.
The decision to do it this way was also made because it is aligned prettier
this way, or that's at least the consensus upstream.
