In minimzed room list, the new message counter pushes the entire icon list downwards #14784

Description

When not focused on the chat in question and in the minimized room list layout on the left of the window, a counter will appear for the total amount of unread messages of a category. When this happens all icons are moved downward, approximately 5 pixels.

Steps to reproduce

Focus a room. Receive a message in a different room. Have the minimized room list layout active.

Describe how what happens differs from what you expected.

The message counter should not move the icons, it should either have a reserved space, or it should overlay the category title. Honestly at this size, the titles can not the read anyway, to it may as well replace the title.

This was by design so that there is any space left for the text.

@t3chguy Ok, that may be, but the movement is very distracting. It either needs to be a fluent animation, or the size needs to be fixed, because as it is, the rapid movement is drawing the eye away from the message.
