I tested it, and it makes the text overlap the text in the right part of the document (the left menu has a fixed width).

This also applies to French (longer) texts in normal size.

So I do not think it is a good idea.

I happen to use a relatively large font, due to my less-than-wonderful eyesight.  As a result, a number of the entries in the left-hand "menu" column on savannah web pages break over multiple lines.  This makes for a pretty poor appearance, and makes the window scroll vertically even there would be no other need.  For example, "My Account Conf" appears on two lines: "My Account" and "Conf".

So, I suggest using &nbsp; instead of a normal space character to separate words, as in My&nbsp;Account&nbsp;Conf.  The result would be wider, since all the items would be on one line, but it would look much better.

Obviously this is not a big deal.  Just an idea.

Thanks.
