I've done something like this in my applet, Fancy Tasks and people like  
this feature (it was suggested by one of the users).
And this means less code, as far as I know it's already possible to  
trigger showing of tool tip "manually".
This topic was already discussed and Aaron "designed" how it should work  
form code side (signals for mouse events and actions in applets).

So we need property to set if we want to have tool tips that accepts hover.
