I had the idea today to show a native tooltip on hover, so that titles that are long thus truncated can still be read. Also it would help the UX of mouse-hover icons. Maybe it could be a replacement for #1403.

It would also help with #1260 and #1529

I was also thinking that it could be the way to add windows to the blacklist for #539, instead of having an app picker. We could have one more icon on window hover to blacklist/un-blacklist. It would be more direct. Maybe too many icons though. Maybe we could move some into a dropdown menu.

I implemented a first iteration of tooltips. What's left to do:

  • Make tooltip on "windowless" icon work
  • Make tooltips on text (i.e. window title, font-icons for minimized, hidden, fullscreen, space number) last when moving the mouse over text
