Because Okular is a desktop application using well known desktop application
patterns like tooltips, and you're suggesting to change how tooltips behave
just because you're using the wrong tool to do what you want to do.

Nothing, your workflow is your problem, "I now need to go through about 5000
such review notes, and for each of it I basically need to copy & paste it into
a separate (Latex editor) at the right place. " is not something normal people
do, and it's not something Okular should strive to make easier by breaking well
established patterns on how apps work.

You should not be doing that either, If you need to do something 5000 times,
you need to find a way to automate it, not do it by hand.
