If, by toolkit, you mean the GUI then I don't think this is the real
(or single) source of the problem. Here I get the truncated indicator
in both Qt5 and GTK's. 
Also, fonts dont seem to make any difference.
It seems to me that perhaps there is a desktop theme thing involved
here. But that makes little sense.
So, I'd advocate for your "simple arrow" approach, just to see if that
helps. As BruceS suggests, getting away from the vaguaries of themes
here there and everywhere may make this kind of stuff align more to
expectations.
