Comment 112 for bug 527458

Bilal Akhtar, well network-manager's applet is not technically an indicator, that's why it has the "old-school" tooltip.
But I agree that many people doesn't notice that or just think (like I did) that a such NEEDED feature was just disabled by mistake or because of the immature development of the indicators...

I however agree that the tooltips are not useful in touch-based devices, but... Why not just make it optional? Underlining to developers that the tooltips can't be used for providing vital informations, but just as an help in some configurations!?
