When the perspective bar is docked under the main toolbar, there is a lot of
horizontal room for the buttons.  However, when text is shown in the perspective
bar buttons, PerspectiveBarContributionItem.shortenText() limits the width of
each button to 5 times the icon size.  This causes many perspectives to have
their names cut off.

Maybe the maximum size should be increased when the perspective bar icons are
docked below the main toolbar?

This screenshot shows how many of the names are being cut off too early.

when the perspective bar is docked on the top left the full text is shown.
