REVISION SUMMARY
  As discussed in T12778 <https://phabricator.kde.org/T12778>, the icon can never be in a correct state: either it's
  redundant with the icon you're hovering over that made the tooltip appear, or
  else it's different from the icon you're hovering over, which is inconsistent.
  
  Since either case is undesirable, let's just remove the icon from the tooltip
  entirely. This reduces the visual noise in the tooltip and solves the entire
  class of bugs automatically.
