Jeep changes within the users' locus of attention (i.e. the area of
the screen on which they're focussing).

Many users are irritated by things that popup without them asking.

Clicking is a declaration, hovering is not.

Arguably, best practice says: don't initiate layers on rollover, but
rather to require a click.
