--- Comment #4 from Thomas Lendo <thomas.lendo at gmail.com> ---
In general, I find it disturbing when tooltips pop up in any place of the UI.
It's well known for example in toolbars. Especially I didn't like tooltips in
lists where the tooltip pops up during moving the mouse of the list items
automatically and then the tooltip itself covers other list items so that they
are not visible anymore. Then you have to move away the mouse to have an full
overview again ...

The "Type" list should be self-explanatory in my opinion. Is it really
necessary to have tooltips here? I doubt.

The "Insert reference to" list is different. Here I support a better
description as it's not really well classifiable. (What's the difference of
Number, Number (no context) and Number (full context)? Why is the most
important list item "Reference" not on top of the list and why is it called so?
etc.)
