Alternatives that select (class color) or (class grayscale) are not used. Can this please be changed, or at least made customizable? I am trying to get the folding mode of AUCTeX to display nicer tooltips. It would be nice if it could effectively use the fontification of hidden text in tooltips. Right now, standard faces don't show well in the tooltips, because their mono version is used. It would be a big help if the standard face definitions showed nicely on tooltip frames. (Yes, there are other issues that also would need to be handled, like the way the tooltip-show function replaces the face of the message string with the face tooltip. But that is in Emacs Lisp, and hence easier to fix, perhaps by making tooltip-show not do that if the message has a particular property on it.) -- Joe
