Bug Description

When clicking on an applet in wingpanel, such as the Bluetooth or Network Connections applets, the menus are often too small horizontally for the items that they contain, so that when mousing through items, the menu "jumps" as it expands. It's an annoyance, at best, but every little bit of OCD helps :)

This is still happening for me here. The main applets don't seem to have an issue, but Skype does, probably because it uses the GTK+ toolkit. Not sure, though.

This is one of those bugs that should not make it to the final release. Probably worth a try for beta 3? I have a rough idea of what's causing it.

Hi,

Is this fix landing on Luna? It says fix released but the milestone is for Isis. I can confirm is not on Luna yet.

As said before, even if it is not a blocker it should be fixed on Luna because if very annoying and makes wingpanel look unprofessional.
