Well, you could argue both. Cairo Menu uses this line in gnome-menu-builder.c:
  bookmarks = desktop_agnostic_vfs_gtk_bookmarks_get_bookmarks (bookmarks_parser);

The problem is, that the parsed ~/.gtk-bookmarks can have directories that don't exist anymore. Neither lda nor Cairo Menu perform such a check. I would argue, that lda should do that check and should not return any bookmarks of non-existing directories, but it could be also done in Cairo Menu.

Places applet also uses lda for this, YAMA seems not to use it.
