Hovering and Tooltips are exclusive?

[Pedro Duque Vieira]

What about if someone would like a tooltip to grab mouse events on some
specific scenario?

Should I split these into 2 issues? One saying: "Tooltips should not grab
mouse events" and the other one: "add setMouseTransparent(boolean
isTransparent) method to Tooltip"
