    I don't think we should delete "uninteresting" tooltips because
    (1) the absence will look like a bug, and
    (2) turning off tooltip display for menu items that lead to submenus
    will solve most of the problem.

You're right.

I guess the point here really is that we should try most of the time to have
the tooltip say something more than just repeat the menu item verbatim.
