[Bug 65140] Gnome's vertical panel unusable;

[lmierzej]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

Vertical panel with Window List, Main Menu, Launchers, Workspace
Switcher etc is almost unsuable.  Window List is too big, Launchers
icons are too big, Main Menu icon is too big. Almost every
component/aplet is messed up some how. It's almost impossible to use
wide vertical panel (about 100-150 px).

Vertical panel is very important for wide screen users (they have
additional space for wide vertical panel).

Maybe panel should behave like the one in Windows (since W98 working
great in vertical position).

P.S. Sorry for my English.

** Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed

** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu)
       Status: Unconfirmed => Confirmed
