Setting the about:config preference of "browser.chrome.toolbar_tips" to "false"
will break all other tooltips based on title="" attributes (e.g. <img>,
<acronym>, <abbr>, <label>, etc).

Apparently disabling the toolbar_tips disables /all/ tooltips.  The disabling of
toolbar_tips should probably disable them in a different way (possibly
commenting out the title="" attributes for them).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set "browser.chrome.toolbar_tips" to "false"
2. Hover over an element that should have a tooltip (e.g. an image with a
title="" attribute)

Actual Results:  
No tooltip

Expected Results:  
Get the tooltip
