No complexities I think. :)

Hmm yeah probably. But we also don't want 2 separate tooltips I think. Maybe 
we should just show the debugger tooltip when the debugger is active, and 
else the language toolkit. But we should always show the language tooltip 
when CTRL is pressed, that way you could always get it when you want the 
information.
