The listview on the left of those dialogs does not expand (even though the horizontal scrollbar policy is set to "never", so I don't know why it doesn't)... the result is that the text is cut off and the user cannot see its entirety unless he resizes the dialogs.

Perhaps other dialogs may be affected.

This is not apparent in C locale but I can replicate in de_DE.utf8. 

I don't think we should automatically increase the width since the right pane is really the more important one. 

I guess we could either enable the horizontal scrollbar or encourage translators to come up with a brief translation.

This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.

[We are now widening the left pane as required. We may have to revisit that if we find that in some locales it becomes too wide.]
