Hello. I've already tried to write this to debian-qt-kde, but there was no reply.
There are many packages that: - do provide icons for programs they provide - do provide files for /usr/lib/menu/ - but don't have Icon= lines in menu files. This results in unwanted visual effects, such as when a KDE user drags an iten from Debian part of K menu item to the panel, panel doesn't get appropriate icon (although one is available). This is exactly what users of our network reported to me. At least partial lintian/linda-level check is possible: problem exists if a package provides a .desktop file (under /usr/lshare/applications/) with Icon= line, and provides a menu file with no Icon= line. So what's the correct action on the case? File minor bugs against affected packages? File wishlist bugs agains lintian/linda? Doing nothing? Something else?
