I think the root of this problem isn't even in gui. A timer gets set
up for the tooltip via the NSTimer method

That method uses the runmode NSDefaultRunLoopMode for the timer. While
a modal window gets displayed gui requests events in the
NSModalPanelRunLoopMode and the timer wont get fired. Now this
behaviour matches the Apple documentation, but results in the tooltip
never getting displayed.
when you write "this behaviour matches Apple" do you mean our timer is
acting correct but we are using the wrong one?

To work around this behaviour gui should create the timer via
-timerWithTimeInterval:target:selector:userInfo:repeats: and add it to
the runloop itself for different modes.
