KDE apps clip italic fonts in menus

I’m using an italic font for menus and parts of fonts past the right edge marker (in top level menu items like “File”, “Edit”, etc.) are clipped. Is there a way to make KDE properly render italic fonts in menus?

Whilst it could be possible, it’s likely just not as easy as it looks to make the UI cater for a wider variety of fonts - I’d recommend sticking with a DISPLAY font of some variety.
