  I've mentioned this before, and never really had a decent resolution.


  I've taken to adding that final 'widget' line to all my downlaoded
themes, *none* of which set up tooltips "correctly".

  However, since they /do/ all have 'tooltip' entries (after a fashion),
the question is: are /all/ the themes I have doing the wrong thing, or is
the themeing actually broken somewhere? (they're all pixmap themes, so it
could well be a funny in the pixmap theme engine).

  The other obvious question is: why haven't *any* of the theme authors
noticed? Or have they got a secret fix they've implemented globally?
