Cool, then I did a good thing. :)
Definitely. Now, if you could do the same with popup menus, it'd be
totally cool. As well as hip and rad. Nag, nag.

Well, is the only reason for motion events while over the toolbar
for tooltips? Those are handled natively by the GTK toolbar.
Can you embed images in such tooltips? Do they do the right thing
with Mule-coded text (hi Stephen)? Can you press button3 to popup a
context-sensitive menu (you can do this with correctly dispatched
events)?
None of these things are crucial, but are one argument against default
system-specified tooltips.
