You are correct. The real problem is that the text field should not be
used anymore for bitmaps handles after the hbmpItem field was added just
for that. This is proven by the fact that strings cannot only be
combined with owner draw menu, but also with bitmaps and even
separators.

I am too busy celebrating vacation atm, but I hope to send in a patch
with extensive tests somewhere tomorrow or so.
