Tooltip for disabled controls

[Tom Schindl]

Should it be an annotation? Marker interfaces are old school not?

We would still need to fix picking to pick the disabled nodes and then let dispatchers decide whether or not to deliver the event to the individual handlers. This can have slight behavioral impact on certain unusual use-cases (I can elaborate if you want) but I think it can be considered as bugfix.

It is basically what I was trying to do with the idea of an alternate event chain... the alternate chain being just to avoid breaking the existing filters and handlers.  Here is another idea.  How about a new interface that extends the EventHandler.. it is only a marker interface to use with event filters to indicate that you should deliver events for disabled controls?  That way all existing Event Filters still don't get called.  Would something like that work? I haven't taken the time to think it through.
