I find it very useful to be able to see the card's rarity from the edition icon color, even for older sets where they weren't yet printed in black/silver/gold/red on the card itself. However, some sets don't seem to have different icons for the different rarities (unglued and chronicles are the two I've noticed).

Hello,
All sets that have rarities on gatherer, have rarities here as well.
Chronicles did not have a standard rarity distribution, like all other sets, hence they are all marked with a common symbol. For more info, see here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronicles_(Magic:_The_Gathering)#Printing_and_distribution.
Unglued, as an un-set is... well, not really a proper set :)
