Bug Description

I have been using Latenight-Stacked for some tests and observed one particularly annoying thing: in case the title of the track is quite long, then the title + timer fill the entire width of the corresponding skin container "field" (I don't know the right term here). Since the font is not monospace, the changing time leads to a slight periodic change of the width of the field contents. Latenight-Stacked seems to be responsive to these slight periodic width changes, leading to permanent re-adjustment. I guess this is not desired and this can easily be fixed by using a monospace font or by making corresponding fields "nonresponsive".

I pushed a change which should fix the problem. the actual track time still jiggles, and even changing it to fixed size and a monospace font didn't work, but the whole layout no longer jiggles with it.

(We might have to write our own Time widget to prevent this sort of reflow issue)
