Danny,

> Clicking is a declaration, hovering is not. 

I think there are some cases where we *can* treat hovering as a
declaration. In particular, I'm thinking of uses such as Netflix's
movie info boxes. When a user places a mouse over an active object,
and then pauses without a click, I think it's a reasonable inference
that the user is lacking information to move forward. In this
circumstance, I think that showing an information box can be
appropriate.
