Details
The items in the link toolbar should have better default tooltip text when the
TITLE attribute isn't specified on the LINK. Currently, the URL is used for the
tooltip. I propose each button get a more helpful default tooltip, such as:
Top: "Site homepage or topmost page"
Up: "One level up from this page"
Next: "Next in this series of pages"
But with better wording than what I've come up with :)
Furthermore, tooltips should be displayed when the item is disabled. Assuming
tooltips like I proposed above, the disabled tooltip may need differnet wording.
For example:
Next: "Next in a series of pages"

Can we specify multiple types of tooltips conditionally in XUL? (I think this
is feasible once we XBLize, though.) cc'ing mpt for UI input.

What I described is possible with JavaScript. We're already doing "conditional"
tooltips: no tooltip when disabled, URL as default, or TITLE if specified.

Sounds good. We'll probably need the spec to write them properly, though. I'm
working on it as fast as I can...
