           Summary: Icons in task manager leave an empty space that widens

kde_widening_space

SUMMARY
When using the icons-only task manager with 1 row of icons, if I start
launching applications and thereby add new icons to the taskbar, once it
reaches the end of the available space, it will leave an empty space inbetween
the icons and the next widget to the right, and this blank space will keep
widening as I add more and more icons (see attached video).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set icons-only task manager in a KDE panel, and configure it to have only 1
row of icons.
2. Start launching many applications past the point where all available space
for the task manager is filled under the default icon size.
3. Watch the space inbetween the task manager and the next widget that borders
it (typically the system tray).

OBSERVED RESULT
As more icons are added, an empty space is put next to the icons, and this
empty space keeps getting larger and larger as more icons are added, therefore
shrinking them more than is necessary.

EXPECTED RESULT
Should shrink icons only as much as is required in order to arrange them in the
available space.
