Tooltips can be anywhere from a word to several paragraphs.
Although I realize they're intended to be short, there are times when nothing works as well as medium to long tooltips. Unfortunately, that means there isn't enough time to read them, so user has to keep rolling the mouse over n' over to try and read all.
I suggest:
* having display time be dependent on amount of text.
* have display time (base rate) be adjustable, since people read at different rates.
Thanks for listening,
