As far as the mouse events go, you might consider using a timer to detect if user has paused for the amount of time over the map feature. onmouseover could start the timer. If user does not move (mousemove) after a certain amount of time, then show the pop-up window if over a map feature.
I had to make timer functionality to ignore mouse wheel events that were too fast. I've attached a simpler example of using a timer. This is not the same as using the javascript setTimeout function.

I'd just want a callback run with the x,y of the pause. In my case I do pure MapServer query requests with JSON or HTML responses. I ported the ka-map approach to my own non-tiled framework (for example, http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/waters/csg/index.html) and want to use a similar approach with OpenLayers clients I'm working on.
