Comment(by wenzeslaus):

 I added a patch to adjust lmgr frame minimal width according to ideal menu
 width (attachment:lmgr_width_for_menu.diff).

 But:
  * it adjusts minimal size, not the real size, so user cannot make lmgr
 frame smaller; implement it for the (non-minimal) size is difficult (there
 are default values and user settings involved)
  * width is only estimated, I put there some magic constants which worked
 for en, cs and de on Ubuntu
  * it should do nothing for English but the locale test fails on some PCs
 returning None; locale is always fragile

 It is too complex I think and I'm now not sure if it was worth to even try
 to write this patch, but since it is written I posted it here.
