------- Additional Comments from Alp Toker <alp at atoker.com>
Kris (author of the new GtkTooltip API) suggested that this workaround
shouldn't be necessary. r- based on this, though we might have to re-visit it
if we can't find an alternative.

One suggestion was to usegtk_tooltip_set_tip_area() but that requires that we
have knowledge of existing tooltip areas, and the area has to be rectangular,
neither of which is always true.

The drawing area example in testtooltips might be a source of inspiration
apparently.

Jan, could you coordinate this effort with the GTK+ team? If it doesn't work
out, we'll have to look at the hacks again.

Thanks!
