this is likely to break. e.g. we hide the tooltip on mouse click as well.

how about change updateToolTip() to upateToolTip(bool update). yes, it's a 
bit "ugly" but prevent bloating the applet API even further. it would be 
called with updateToolTip(true) when it's shown, etc and updateToolTip(false) 
when it is hidden.
