It's not a "bug", but a rather silly design flaw. Saw at least one
person standing up for it an even managing to justify it, but for the
rest of us, we prefer it "cramped", and not have space needlessly wasted
like that.

Application Indicators too wide

Bug description:
the Application Indicators applet is wider than the regular systray.

3 Indicators icons are slightly bigger than 4 tray icons, incl. the left part.
See the screenshot. The two highlighted boxes are ~100 pixels wide.

With more applications moving to the app indicator, it will result in less usable space in the panel, which in my case is already pretty full.
