It's not clearer to me and not knowing how OpenOffice does not help here.

I remarked that we have 2 sorts of immediate help in KDE and my question is: how your WhatThisHelp wish is different from the Tooltip help which appears on mouse hover. My comment is relevant in that regard: you said 'but automatically shows itself immediately upon mouse-over' which tooltips exactly do.

Maybe you mean that the Ctrl-F1 mode (the mouse cursor with ?) should show WhatsThis help without click. I don't know if it is possible to have a busy cursor and mouse hover without click.
