I think it is the problem -- you think of the old tooltip as a competitor. It
is not better vs. worse -- those are two solutions for two distinct purposes.

Tooltip -- quick, "inexact" info.
Dialog -- nice, big, animated, 100% exact (in theory) info.

Who said the second competes with the first? Going this "better solution" way
let's remove all text editors because we have "better solutions" --> word
processors.

Tooltip was a nice, useful feature, and served its purpose absolutely
perfectly. As I said -- if you dislike it, don't use it, but there are people
for whom it is useful.
