Discussed this with Ivanka and she asked me to add a couple of
screenshots, so the Design team could discuss this.  Attaching one of
the Applications Place and one of the Files Place.

I'm highlighting the Netbook Banshee Media Player icon and that name is shortened to "Netbook B...edia Player"  Would a new user really know what the heck that is?  I think the OpenOffice.org apps are similarly cryptic, though one could probably glean what they are.

This is admittedly not great for demonstrating the point, but at least demonstrates the behaviour for the Design team to evaluate.  I think the longer the file name the worse this will get.
