Thanks for the report -- that is being tracked on the browser side,
but hadn't made it to me to ensure we were doing a workaround in the
docs.
We're working on pushing out our next doc update soon, and I'll make
sure those tooltips get pulled.
Our intent, after this doc update, is to re-instate the tooltips
using standard browser "title" functionality. We currently use a
fancier JavaScript driven approach that allows for styled content in
the tooltip and some additional control over the display of the
tooltip, but unfortunately we can't get around triggering this bug,
so we're going back to basics.
I'd like to reiterate my preference for no tooltip at all. I find they
pop up when they're mostly unwanted, and obscure whatever's underneath
(which might not actually be that much, but the feeling that they're
in the way persists).
Maybe if there was a very small "i" or something, but all too often my
mouse is hovering while I'm reading the page (and possibly scrolling),
and it triggers the popup. I really feel like the info they contain
could just be put on the page.
TIA,
Rick
