It's important to explain why it acts the way it does first.
Although you've told the grid to anchor on the right hand side, you've
also (implicitly) told it it needs to be 4 buttons wide, and each
button is hardcoded to be at least 12 characters wide.
(plasmacomponents/qml/Button.qml:95). At which point even though the
grid is anchored to the parent, it' content is bigger so it shows it
all anyway.
The way you can make it fit is to "fix" the button to not be really
massive, by adding a "width: grid.width/4.0 - grid.spacing"
Though you're in slightly dangerous territory here, as the plasmoid
should fit the size of the content, not shrinking the content to fit.
The last thing we want is for a plasmoid that can be resized to look
like this: http://wstaw.org/m/2012/09/24/plasma-desktopZ30680.png
It may be better to change Button.
