Jonathan,

Did you look at my slightly modified test case at
https://bugs.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=53316 ?

As per comment #6 I had to wrap the contents of the <symbol> elements in a <g>
and the tooltips showed up. So the following case does not work:

<defs>
  <symbol id="foo">
    <title>Foo</title>
    <rect .../>
    <circle .../>
  </symbol>
</defs>

<use xlink:href="#foo"/>

The user will not see a "Foo" tooltip when hovering over the content.  

To solve this, I had to modify the markup by wrapping the symbol geometry in a
group as:

<defs>
  <symbol id="foo">
  <g>
    <title>Foo</title>
    <rect .../>
    <circle .../>
  </g>
  </symbol>
</defs>

<use xlink:href="#foo"/>


If you think the other case is important and that wrapping the geometry of a
symbol in a <g> is not a sufficient solution, then please open a new WebKit bug
with the title "Symbol tooltips not being displayed"
