Hmm, not sure what you're talking about :)
You mean someone has changed default behavior and haven't post a note about it 
in the list (i wonder if that someone would be me, though I don't recall me 
doing this change :))
Well, if you're talking about that kind of thing, i think it should have been 
noted, yes.

I have an idea that some bool (m_linkHovered) can be added to this class and 
that it can be set to true once linkHovered signal arrives, and false 
otherwise. Then, you can override mouseReleasEvent and if m_linkHovered is 
true, call the parent handler, otherwise do usual hiding stuff.
If that'd work out, we have a solution.

This is purely from head, I didn't look at the code yet.
(time to go to bed now...)

Cheers,
Dmitry.
