The wider they are the easier they are to hit, and the less likely you are to hit the wrong one by accident. On the other hand, they shouldn't be so wide that the application menu runs off the end. Ideally I suppose the 'padding' on either side should adjust to the size of the monitor and the size of the other menus so that they're always as big as possible but no bigger (to a certain upper maximum, of course).
