Lightbulb UI Issue in version 8.0.0-8.0.1

Some weird UI performance in new version.
P1 & P3: Labels and icons are overlapped in Layout menu.
P2 & P4: The icons in All actions menu are lost. And the new folding menu is a little weird for Chinese language — I can tell it’s applying alphabetical sorting of Pinyin, but why it’s not display as letter but Chinese character. Is it better to sort by similar functions instead of alphabet? Then, the plugin actions are so a little, should have no need to fold.
(P3, P4: v7.26; P1,P2: v8.0.1)

Btw, including old versions — Tags Browser in the left side bar are based on alphabetical sorting all the time (P5 & P6). But Chinese alphabet and English alphabet are displayed in separate, the English alphabet is at the bottom (P6). In my view, they can mixed together, it’s totally enough and even has a better readability, to just display in English alphabet — if it’s doable, of course.

Lastly, in the new version, the app icons (Editor, Viewer, Calibre main application) for the macOS version is not referencing the app icon from the icon pack.
