That's strange.  This patch does not modifiy the redraw mechanism of the 
widget.  It just changes the method of calculating the width of text, i.e. 
using 00:00:00 get the width.  Are you sure this does not happen before this 
patch?  I just cannot reproduce your problem...

Maybe you can provide a video to demonstrate this problem.  However, I just 
suspect whether the developer still interests in merging this patch since they 
seems to be busy with KDE5, which uses a completely different applet system.
