bubbles don't disappear if they popup under the mouse

From part of http://trac.galago-project.org/ticket/73 "03/16/07 16:15:57: Modified by jwendell * patch_included changed. As commented on a Ubuntu bug (http://launchpad.net/bugs/71055): If a bubble pops up at the position where the mouse cursor is located, it doesn't disappear anymore. This is very annoying for me when using a thinkpad where the cursor most of the work is done by using the keyboard so I usually move the mouse cursor into a position where it doesn't annoy me. What do you think about it? Maybe a gconf key to handle this? 09/04/07 13:49:09: Modified by herzi * status changed from closed to reopened. * resolution deleted. I think the current behavior is broken. If the popup opens below the mouse cursor it doesn't disappear. A better solution to satisfy both people who want the bubbles to remain open and to close bubbles always automtically could be this one: Don't listen to "enter-notify-event" and "leave-notify-event". Instead, listen to "motion-notify-event" and just reset the timeout everytime the mouse gets moved. Tell me if you like this approach, and if you do: I can provide a patch (but I won't write one just to hear "nice work, won't fix"). 03/18/08 21:44:27: Modified by chipx86 This would work. I'm fine with that change. "
