Tooltips are poping up and hiding other info.  As somebody else
explained, for menu entries tooltips are not that important, because
menu texts are better to understand than tool bar icons.

Yes, one can get used to the tooltips and their texts are often very
good; nevertheless having an option to disable menu entry tooltips
separately would be nice.

I know you can often call a context menu in Emacs, but it's impossible
to jump from a menu entry directly to the manual where this menu entry
will be explained.
