Why's that? If you don't want to see the bigger version of the photo in the tooltip, then all that needs to be done is to NOT hover over a picture. How could somebody then be distracted? > Yup.

I don't know if I'd expect that. But as other applications also seem to do that (Pidgin and some MS app, as you say, and also Konqueror), I could easily understand that people might expect such a behaviour.
