[Bug 632526] [NEW] Unity should allow for 3 rows of text below program shortcuts or programs

[Jerone Young]

Public bug reported:

Currently Unity is cutting off text for programs & shortcuts. Standard
Gnome allows for 3 rows of text. Unity should do the same to allow
standard names used (that work with Gnome Desktop) to display fine with
Unity. This is critical as many shortcuts have translations that take up
more then one line

Here is an example of where things are wrong with Unity here:
