Tooltip resize performance also isn't stellar right now, and size changes are especially deadly for right-aligned tooltips (i.e. vertical panel on the right screen edge), causing odd dancing. So conceptually it's a -1 for me. Additionally on the first screenshot the left/right margins also aren't uniform for icon and text label.

probably the extra padding the current version has makes it look a bit cleaner.
also true that windows with "wrong" proportions are never going to look good, so hard to say in an objective way what's the best approach.

minimizing resizes (even if resizing was relly fast) seems a good principle tough
