Inconsistent mouseover behaviour in System Monitor Preferences

[kgerstl]

Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor

gnome-system-monitor 2.22.0-0ubuntu1

Open the preferences window. Move your mouse over the checkbox entries in the upper half of the "Processes" tab.

The middle checkbox entry "Alert berfore ending or killing processes" will only be highlighted around the checkbox and the label whereas for the other two entries the whole line will be highlighted (the way it should be).

Same for "Show all filesystems" in the "File Systems" tab.

I know that this kind of problems have the lowest priority, but a desktop OS should really have a polished GUI.
