Hmmm, if you have some > coordinates, can tooltips be displayed to the left/right of them (or only to > the right)? x-show-tip currently supports offsets.. If your point is all the way at the bottom right of the screen you will have to use a negative offset to keep from putting the tooltip off of the screen. This could be done by figuring out the text when inserted in a temp buffer. Someone on #emacs just gave me an interesting idea as to an impl and I am playing with that now.... it might actually work!
