Public bug reported:

(I've recently upgraded from Ubuntu 14.04 to 16.04)

Test case:
1) Open image in eog.
2) Move mouse pointer around
3) Frustrating and useless hint overlays for nativation prev/next and rotate 
cw/ccw keep appearing and disappearing and clutter up my view of the image I'm 
trying to enjoy.

I have three suggestions:
1) Remove them from code entirely.  I has worked perfectly without them for 
ages.
2) Make an option to disable them completely.
3) Concentrate all overlay buttons to a block and place it at bottom center 
(where rotation are now) to make them more user friendly; it's annoying to have 
to move the mouse across the entire screen to navigate forth/back. But this is 
just an extra tip, because I basically believe that this feature should be 
killed all together.
 
What I really used to like about EOG was its simplicity. It shows me my image 
and nothing more!  Nobody wants clutter -- especially clutter they cannot 
disable.
