Why do you call x-show-tip?

I think x-show-tip is just meant as an internal function for tooltip-show.  Why
not use that, or even tooltip-mode and the help-echo text proerty, instead?

It probably overrides the background so that it doesn't appear as part of the
parent frame (unless that happens to be lightyellow) when debugging tooltip
functionality.  Unless you have a real purpose for using x-show-tip directly,
I don't think this is worth changing.
