Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  What happens:

  1. The user (Me, in this case) installs the gmail plugin for the launcher.
  2. The user has more than 9999 unread emails.
  3. The "count" becomes an unreadable mess.

  What should happen:

  1. The user (Me, in this case) installs the gmail plugin for the launcher.
  2. The user has more than 9999 unread emails.
  3a. The "count" stretches, allowing for up to 8-9 digits to be displayed.
  3b. The "count" is truncated, still showing the most important parts of the number.

  [ Test Case ]

  See above.

  [ Regression Potential ]

  Any software change in the Unity desktop shell has the potential to
  introduce desktop shell crashes or lockups.

  [ Other Info ]

  The SRU fix for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS was cherry-picked from Ubuntu 14.10
  where it has been in production use for some time with apparent
  regressions.
