At the moment is not possible to do that, because yu don't have direct
access to the popup icon.

A way could be adding a method to the global plasmoid object for
popupapplets like setToolTip(icon, text, subtext)

how does this sound? (not sure would be so desiderable for plasma2 tough..)
and this could be a good junior job if soomebody can give it a shot ;)
