I think it is possible with some hackery--you have to adjust
tooltip-frame-parameters before calling tooltip-show.  If I'm not
mistaken, doc-view mode uses a similar approach to display search
results within pdfs.

You mean by specifying top and left?  I think that is what I was going to do to position the tooltip but first I need to find out the x/y of the current point.
