We now have mouseover tooltips for most mode-line info.
Please add tooltips to explain the buffer position (12% of...) and the
line and column indicators.
We might also add a tooltip for the time, mentioning the timezone
info. or UTC delta.

I wasn't clear. We have such tooltips, but they are not very helpful. `Size
indication mode' is useless text. Say instead what this field is - how to
understand the text, and what happens if you click `mouse-1' here.

The tooltips on the mode line seem to do that now, so I guess this has
been fixed sometime the past six years.
