Just to clarify: On a resolution of 1024x768, using the default setup
(Sans 10pt at 96dpi), a menu can accommodate 25 entries before
scrolling.

Considering the patch in comment #34, the maximum potential entries
displayed by the Places menu will be 22. This is the breakdown:

1. Home Folder*
2. Desktop*
3-10. 8 bookmarks
11-18. 8 drives
19. Network
20. Connect to Server
21. Search for Files...
22. Recent Documents

*Home Folder and Desktop are not counted as bookmarks.

Some questions:
a) What is the minimum resolution of a netbook (considering UNR)? As long as 
the height is no less than 768, this patch won't harm netbook users.
b) Are mounted network shares added to the Places menu underneath "Connect to 
Server"? I can't test at the moment. If this is the case, the maximum potential 
entries would rise to 30, which may not be ideal.
