I don't remember the history off hand, but I think the issue was that much of the Node contract it couldn't implement (maybe because in reality it was a popup window, not a Node), and so instead of lying about it we fessed up and said it was something different. > A related issue is, I would like to be able to call > setMouseTransparent(true).

All tooltips should behave as you describe by default and should never grab mouse events. Is there not a JIRA for that? Richard
