Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
The Google Suggest drop-down list is too narrow by default in Firefox 2.0 (I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.5+1-0ubuntu1 from 7.04 Feisty).
See the screenshot attached. I'm using the default theme and fonts at the resolution of 1024x768. The mouse pointer doesn't appear in the screenshot; it was just pointing to the selected entry.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Firefox.
2. In the search bar, select the Google search engine icon and type in a common word that is not too short.
3. A drop-down list from Google Suggest appears which contains several indistinguishable suggestions, because for each suggestion, only the first word is displayed, and the rest is replaced with an ellipsis (...) because of the shortage of horizontal space. You can only see the full suggestions as tool-tips, which is poor usability for the Suggest feature.
Expected behavior:
Make the drop-down list wider to accommodate its content as necessary.

Also, using the column truncates longer suggestions in a weird way.
