Hi Alister, I agree with you and I think the tool tip for a plugin toolbar should be "mandatory", cause is the only way for the user to know which plugin the toolbar belongs to.
Maybe the addToolBar(name) method of the QgisInterface class could simply set the QToolBar tooltip property using the same provided toolbar name, so every plugin toolbar will have a default tooltip.
