The native case is neither broken nor can it be fixed. Tooltips like
those provided by GTK, Windows or many desktops are supposed to provide
a uniform look across all sorts of applications that use them so that
the user can easily recognize tooltips as what they are. That's why they
usually have customizable backgrounds, fonts and borders. Applications
are not supposed to meddle with them.
