Nobody's talking about "ugliness" from wrapping. The issue is that multi-line names will interfere with the positioning of the running indicator below the application name - either making it appear too far below the name, or leaving it positioned at different heights.
One way to fix it would be to drop the running indicators from the application grid.

That's not how this works. We come up with a design first, then commit patches. Not the other way round.
