Comment:

 Well, I found this was lost when {{{PaletteMenuItem}}} was added in
 2d0ac2a95219992ac5be003816fdb97ff5f6af6f of sugar source code.

 That class does not handle the {{{text_maxlen}}} argument (default to 60).
 I used this argument to set the Gtk.Label's size:
 {{{label.set_max_width_chars}}} and use MIDDLE for its EllipSizeMode as
 {{{sugar3.graphics.palette.Palette}}} does for its title and subtitle.

 With these settings, the title of the palette and its items share the same
 behaviour and are rendered with the same width.
