Spacing at the top and bottom of the dock does not match the left and right spacing

[PJSingh5000]

In the Ubuntu Dock, there is no space above the first tile icon and below the last tile icon.
However, there is a space to the left and right of the tile icons.

The attached image shows how the first tile in the dock (Firefox) touches the top bar, and how the last tile in the dock (Application Menu Button) touches the bottom of the screen.

This does not look balanced.

The space around each tile of the Ubuntu Dock should be the same (left, right, top, bottom). Note that when this is fixed, the space between each tile should remain exactly the same as the space on the left and right.
