Comment(by somatic):

 Not sure how to integrate this code into the core menu functions, but
 here's a workaround I'm currently using, which should demonstrate what's
 missing in the current menu output:


 {{{
 add_filter( 'add_menu_classes', 'show_pending_number');
 function show_pending_number( $menu ) {
     $type = "animals";
     $status = "pending";
     $num_posts = wp_count_posts( $type, 'readable' );
     $pending_count = 0;
     if ( !empty($num_posts->$status) )
         $pending_count = $num_posts->$status;

     // build string to match in $menu array
     if ($type == 'post') {
         $menu_str = 'edit.php';
     // support custom post types
     } else {
         $menu_str = 'edit.php?post_type=' . $type;
     }

     // loop through $menu items, find match, add indicator
     foreach( $menu as $menu_key => $menu_data ) {
         if( $menu_str != $menu_data[2] )
             continue;
         $menu[$menu_key][0] .= " <span class='update-plugins
 count-$pending_count'><span class='plugin-count'>" .
 number_format_i18n($pending_count) . '</span></span>';
     }
     return $menu;
 }
 }}}
