This bug has been around since the context menu, which was rev 1.2!
See also similar bug 250167.

No other context menus have tooltip. They would just be in the way, as they are
in the tabs context menus. They are superfluous, redundant, needless, useless,
uncalled for and simply annoying. They should not be there and need to be removed.

This isn't just similar to bug 250167, it's a duplicate of it! Could someone
please mark it as so?

Except that's a Firefox bug; this is effectively the Suite's equivalent.

Bug 250167 (including my patch to it) now applies to the Suite as well (product
is set to core), so this is now a dupe.
