I agree. My take on tooltips is they cover a real need to let people know
what they are using. Sometimes, they are too long, I also agree. But
overall, they are paving the way to a good usage of the application. I would
not throw that away. Maybe, for some knowledgeable users, a way in the Prefs
to turn them out.

Also, as a translator, these tooltips are great to understand a specific
functionality.
