Now that I have the patch implemented in 11.04 Natty, I find the
following:  Indicator Applet Application Menu is also affected by the
patch:

For the Ambiance and Radiance themes, this is problematic since the
patch removes the spaces between the text, drastically reducing
readability.

For other themes, where the patch only represents an improvement for
Indicator Applet and not a fix, the portion of the space/gap that is NOT
eliminated is necessary to retain good readability for Indicator Applet
Application Menu.

This demonstrates that the true nature of the bug is that Indicator
Applet is using a padding/spacing/gap methodology that is inappropriate
for Indicator Applet, but is appropriate for Indicator Applet
Application Menu.  Hopefully this will clarify the fact that the bug is
NOT with the themes, but with the Indicator Applet, and maybe if we're
lucky, the bug will finally get assigned to somebody who is developing
Indicator Applet.

Now if I can just manage to use one or less items in Notification Area,
I will have something I can live with in the meantime.
