Aaron Ahlemeyer, what I would expect is either no tooltip at all (easier
codebase to maintain, less annoying for endusers), or as a part of a
normal tooltip convention, if a tooltip is going to be presented, it's
only something not already shown via the applet. In the case of the
Clock, the tooltip repeats the time, but does show the timezone. With
GNOME Sensors Applet it repeats the temperature but shows the device
name. If tooltips stay, then it would seem to have to be dealt with on a
per applet basis.

Either way, it's not something Ubuntu would want to deviate from
upstream on. It's hard enough to maintain the codebase as is, versus two
codebases, one from upstream, and the other Ubuntu's modified version of
upstream.

Please feel free to file a new report via https://bugzilla.gnome.org/ .
Once reported, please post the upstream URL to this report so that it
may be tracked.

Thank you for your understanding.
