To answer my own question, here's the original bug report:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=557469

Comments there indicate that the Applications menu is still intended to
have icons. The proposed guideline in comment #1 says (in part): 

"A menu item should have an icon only if it represents a dynamic object
such as an application, file, device, or user ..."

So yeah, that will probably be fixed once someone updates gnome-panel
(or whatever component that menu comes from).
