#9855: Option to disable tooltips in buddy list, or tooltip only when hovering
over buddy name

 I'm using Pidgin on a netbook (HP mini) running Ubuntu Netbook Remix. Most
 of the time the pidgin buddy list is maximized full screen, like most of
 the apps that run with this type of UI. The problem is that as I navigate
 the screen with the mouse, the tooltips for the buddy details are popping
 up all over the place and on a small netbook screen they take up a fair
 amount of space.

 It would be nice if it was possible to disable the buddy tooltips, or at
 least make them only appear when the mouse hovers over the buddy name
 itself.
