kickoff menu doesn't stick to screen edge

[christoph]

The default kickoff menu in kubuntu jaunty (daily live 24. March) doesn't stick to the left screen edge. This is a problem, because if you choose an application category and want to go back to the list of categories, you click on the "Back" Button on the very left of the kickoff menu. Usually, if the menu stuck to the screen edge, you could just move the mouse to the left screen edge and click it easily, Because the kickoff menu is not at the screen edge directly, you have to aim more precisely,

To make my point clearer, I made a screenshot (in jaunty beta).
The desktop background is bright red. You can see some of the red background on the left of the open kickoff menu, even though kickoff should stick to the screen edge.

I also noticed this; this is annoying when user goes to wrong menu and wants to go back quickly by moving mouse as far as it goes to the left; the "back" bar still seems to be active (in my case blue, instead of "inactive grey") but it doesn't react to mouse clicks.
Making the bar inactive when mouse moves out of score would be no fix; the user should be able to go back in this case by slamming the mouse against the left side of screen and clicking there.
