Any JavaScript-enabled widgets (like tooltips) do require bootstrap.js and
jquery.js. The only reason I didn't add them in the main PatternFly patch
is that we didn't need them back then. But now we need them.

gwtbootstrap3 provides renderings of GWT widgets that are compatible with
bootstrap css. It does not rewrite the jQuery code into GWT-JavaScript code.

I wouldn't say "provide." It enables using the widgets more easily from GWT.

Take a look at 
https://github.com/gwtbootstrap3/gwtbootstrap3/blob/master/gwtbootstrap3/src/main/java/org/gwtbootstrap3/client/ui/Tooltip.java
line 521 on down.

It simply wraps everything for ease-of-use from GWT / UIBinder.
