Bug Description

The Dash category headers are positioned incorrectly in the horizontal axis. The far left of the category header icons should line up exactly with the far left of the spinner/magnifying glass in the search box.

See the visual designs in https://chinstrap.canonical.com/~sabdfl/11_10/desktop_and_netbook/dash/

- during handover with John we found that moving the icon in the searchbar (magnif. glass/spinner) 4px to the left is the best way to fix this

I am closing this as fixed considering we had a lot of size and shapes fixes in the past few weeks.
