Description MT 2011-08-05 04:48:52 UTC 
Many applications with a status icon in the message tray have associated tooltips, but they open up behind the message tray, and are obscured by the dark band, text and icons on the message tray, making them quite hard to read. The tooltips should be displayed either over or above the contents of the message tray.
