With the fix it is better than without the fix - that is for sure, but the overall layout looks strange and majority of the arrow icon is being hidden behind the submenu's popup which is wrong. I am approving it as a stopgap solution but the overall we might want to re-visit how we calculate layouts of menu items to make it look more like a OS native menus.
