I was playing around with some possible solutions that involved adding a delay before switching popovers, but I didn't like them.

I'd like to propose that instead, the functionality be added that you can make a popover "sticky" by clicking on the represented token. 

In the "sticky" state:
a) The user can move the mouse anywhere without dismissing the popover.
b) The represented token would have on a higher-contrast highlight color to help provide user feedback and make this feature more discoverable.

To dismiss the popover and exit the sticky state, you could:
a) type text into the text editor, or
b) click outside the popover

I'd be happy to try to create this patch if anyone feels like this would be a good solution.
