I think this is a Java problem, not an IJ one (I do not know if there are any
workarounds).
You probably could submit a bug report to either Oracle or the OpenJDK
community.
One way to get round is to use Crtl-L to run a command that is not visible in
a too-long menu, but of course one would expect to be able to scroll the menu
anyway.
The bug has been present for a long time and unfortunately is still in
Oracle's Java 7.
