Why did you feel the need for such a rude derogatory comment? If you'd
looked carefully you'd have seen that it was originally raised as an
issue 'years' ago and was raised against gnome-do. It's hardly my fault,
nor is it 'LOL' worthy that it hasn't been looked at in that time.

Perhaps you could do something useful and confirm if docky still fails
to satisfy the defect or not?

Title:
  docky grouped menu titles are too narrow / truncated

Status in Docky:
  Invalid
Status in “docky” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-do

  When right-clicking on, for example, the gnome-terminal icon in docky
  you receive a context list showing all the terminal windows you have
  open. However, the width of the context menu is far too narrow to show
  any useful content.

  For the terminal example, the user is simply presented with a number
  of 'user at user-laptop.....' entries, with no way of telling one from
  the other. Standard gnome-panel, when configured to group windows,
  correctly displays the entire title of all terminals on the context
  menu.

  This is especially a problem if the user is using a >96 dpi setting
  for their monitor properties as even less text is visible.

  Docky should either have no limit on the width of these menus
  (dynamically adjusting to fit content), or should dramatically
  increase the fixed width, or should allow the user to set a preference
  determining the width.
