Until the release of the google visualizations package on Monday, many
things (including hover) were broken in IE8.  So everyone using the
package was told to put their pages into IE7 compatibility mode (<meta
content="IE=EmulateIE7" http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible"></meta>).

However, with the most recent google visualizations package, it now
appears that hovers do not work on an IE8 page running in IE7
compatibility mode.  (They do work in IE8 standard now - thanks!)

Is there any chance google vis could fix this?  It is painful to have
to immediately update our sites that are using this functionality.  In
fact, I would urge the google vis team to move to a model in which
developers can choose particular google visualizations versions and
upgrade them when they they want to.  Otherwise it is difficult to
deal with these kinds of backwards compatibility issues, which could
hit at any time.

Thanks!
