Title:
  gnome-control-center cuts long single-word descriptions

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  the gnome-control-center (system settings) cuts long single-word
  descriptions off in its UI, making it harder to figure out what an
  item refers to. Its important to realize that English is one of the
  most compact languages around, and translating English to another
  language almost always results in longer strings. For example in
  Dutch, the following entries in system settings are too long to be
  displayed properly: Taalondersteuning, Toetsenbordindeling, Extra
  stuurprogramma's, Gebruikersaccounts, Softwarebronnen and
  Systeeminformatie
