An image of the inspect element tooltip obscuring element metrics

I've attached a picture of what I'm referring to. I'm not sure when the tooltip was introduced, but the image shows an issue that I've run into since it was added — it's not possible to visually see the bottom-margin of an element if either the height of the margin or the width of the element is smaller than the tooltip. I've artificially enlarged element in the second half of the image to show the obscured margin.

I'm not sure that the tooltip is terribly useful (possibly the width and height?) but could possibly the tooltip be made translucent or an give to remove it altogether. I like to use the inspector visually — the whether something is the result of a margin or padding, and it's connection to other elements, but recently this tooltip has just removed that visibility.
