Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

The bookmarks/drives system in the Ubuntu menu is limited to 5 items
before it truncates into a folder-view. I use bookmarks *all* the time
so having to go across one extra step has really started to get to me. I
also mount a lot of network drives, so the drives section does the same.
If you're still not with me, here's a picture:

I can see the merits for doing this, but *only* if showing everything
would require the menu to have a scroll-bar. At the moment there's no
effort to even detect how many entries we could paint - **it's hard-
coded!**

Can I please suggest we temporarily boost the hard-coded number to 10,
release it and then come up with a better way of addressing the problem?
