The application launcher is as large as you make it, by resizing it using the usual drag on the edge of the popup method (like any other resizable window). 

Does the extra space remain if you make the popup smaller? Is it also too large on a default configuration (e.g. new user account)?

Great! Didn't know I could resize it, I'm closing the issue.
