Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

summary:
In breezy, Tooltips used to appear after a short delay of a few hundred 
milliseconds.  Now they seem to pop up instantly, which is really annoying.  

steps to reproduce:
1. mouse over something, like the workspace switcher applet.
2. scrub back and forth a bit.
3. let the mouse rest.

expected results:
The tooltip shouldn't appear until after the mouse comes to a stop for 300 
milliseconds (at least).

actual results:
boom, instant tooltips covering up onscreen information.

further information:
I can't find a global gconf key for this setting anywhere, so I suspect it's 
hard-coded.  Furthermore since many apps don't respect the global tooltip 
setting, there's not much I can do about it.  This doesn't seem to happen with 
all applets, but launchers, the menu widget, the workspace switcher, and the 
clock all do this.

** Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed
