Bug Description

After change gnome-panel properties to not expand the orders of items will be change in next login.
I change again to expand and re-login the items (in gnome-panel) return to correct order.

Some people like me, prefer gnome-panel not expanded.
But after unexpanded of gnome-panel the items order are modified in next login and need to re-order again.

I put several screenshots in the sequence to demonstrate this bug.

Final Considerations :

In my test all items are marked as "lock" to the panel. But it's not fine, the same problem.
I think that gnome-panel only retain correct order in expand and not expand panel as first time, but if you change one to another then all items are relocated in different positions.
To turn around this bug you need to rearrange items again and not change expanded->not expanded (vice-versa).

Sorry, about not flag "gnome-panel package".
