it is possible to disable the tooltips that pop up in the documents
drawer? whenever i use the documents drawer to switch to a different
document (i.e. mouse over to the list and click a filename), a couple
seconds later a tooltip pops up and covers up part of my editing
window. i guess the correct way to switch documents would be to move
the cursor somewhere else after clicking but i always forget to do
that (unless of course i'm actually editing the document), and it's
inefficient if my next action is going to be to click another
document. the info in the tooltip is repeated in the "file path" field
at the top of the editing window anyway so the tooltip is never useful
to me.

i've found a plist hack that increases the tooltip delay system-wide
but a lot of applications seem to ignore this, including bbedit (i
have NSInitialToolTipDelay set to 500000 but i still see tooltips all
the time).
