Screen shot showing the popup obscuring text

Problem description: 

Steps to reproduce:
1. .... Hover the mouse anywhere near the header or footer area on the page
2. .... Note the new "header and footer" help popup that appears on the screen
3. .... Note that the popup overlaps text on the first and/or last line of the
page.

Current behavior: This makes editing and/or proof-reading documents more
difficult by obscuring text on the page. I appreciate the new feature, but NO
feature should get in the way, and have no way to turn off.

Expected behavior: Put the popup OUTSIDE the margins. Or make it less easy to
cause to popup. Perhaps if the mouse positioning were less forgiving, it
wouldn't keep popping up whenever the mouse is ANYWHERE on the page. I consider
this a bug because no feature should get in the way.

Platform (if different from the browser): I see this on both XP/SP3 and
Win7/latest.
