Bug Description

When using
`self.guide = "999.99 MiB/s↓ 999.99 MiB/s↑";
self.ind.set_property('label-guide', self.guide)`

Using https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/amd64/python-gtop/2.32.0+dfsg-1 with Ubuntu 12.10 the script will not set the indicator as fixed-width - the text will jiggle on contents change.

Here you can find the used code :

This also affects me. I cannot get the label sizing to work properly. I may forgo having text in my indicator to avoid this problem.

Any chance of this getting looked at? I'd like to modify the font to a fixed width font for a network indicator so it doesn't jump around all the time in a distracting way.
