Summary: useless dummy canvas in pd main window ?

Initial Comment:
there is a line:
canvas .dummy -height 2p -width 6c
in pd.tk (u_main.tk). for what is it needed ?

as at least on linux the pd main window doesnt look "nice" when the dummy canvas is in (see attached screenshot, comparing with and without the dummy canvas)

if its not needed:
129d128
< canvas .dummy -height 2p -width 6c
132c131
< pack .controls .dummy -side top -fill x
---
> pack .controls -side top -fill x
