Comment (by Starcrasher):

 Make English behave like other languages wasn't an improvement? LOL\\
 Seriously, left column is too thin and anyway once translated most
 languages ends up with cut text.\\
 I think that in this specific case, the design is the real problem.
 Translators can try to make strings shorter and shorter but it has to
 remain understandable. At the end, if it is too small, there's nothing you
 can do.\\
 No doubt that your observations will be helpful for other apps but, here
 IMHO the two solutions would be to reduce the drawing space or to make
 left bar float.
