Which bug reports? I fail to find something related in Lazarus bugtracker, although I may be using
wrong keywords.
I remember some UI design guide from M$, telling not to put images in menubars.
Maybe everyone is just following that guide :-)
Anyway, 'native' glyph support actually maps to Bitmap property of TMenuItem, and
ImageList+ImageIndex properties map to custom draw (yes WinAPI requires a separate bitmap handle for
every item).
