[Bug 382705] [NEW] docky grouped menu titles are too narrow / truncated

[Dominic Evans]

Public bug reported:

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.
