Research direction

Start by reading the discussion linked from issue #3289 and inspecting the alert page implementation responsible for displaying receiver names. Confirm the layout problem using the attached screenshot; done means differently sized receiver names no longer produce a staircase-like alert list.

Description

component/ui

@gotjosh mentioned in in https://github.com/prometheus/alertmanager/issues/3289#issuecomment-1462127885_

that adding the receiver names to the alert page ends up with a "stairstep" look if the receiver names are different lengths. I've implemented @roidelapluie's name/channel routing, so my receiver names are all over the place.

In the original PR it was deemed "good enough for now, we'll look at it later" - has any further thought been given to dealing with that layout issue?
