Category List in a drop down does not pad term counts

Description

Hello.
I am using WordPress 2.7.1.
I have a blog with many categories, subcategories, sub-subcategories etc. When I post, I link that post only to the last sub-subcategory available.
The issue is: Sometimes, WordPress does not consider a post linked to a subcategory as a post of the mother category of that subcategory. As it does not count a post linked to a subcategory as a post of the mother category, some plugins hide that category because it is apparently empty.
Look at this pictures so you'll be able to understand what I am saying:
​http://cesar.z0p.org/CategoryList1.PNG
​http://cesar.z0p.org/CategoryList2.PNG
I was using the official WordPress category list widget plugin on both of them.
Could you please fix that?
Thanks in advance.
César
