> Safari (unlike Chrome canary) shows both my custom tooltip and the native browser title tooltip

I now understand what motivated the report. I initially tested with an older Safari version, where the custom tooltip didn't show up. 

However, I don't see any reason to agree that this is a WebKit bug, showing a tooltip for truncated text seems natural and user friendly. Nothing says that a browser cannot show tooltips for anything but title.

Duping to bug 114304 that tracks adding a way to disable this behavior.
