If I have the following code:

<input name="textfield" title="This should display tooltip" type="text" disabled="disabled" value="This is the value." />

You will noticed that the input field is set to disabled and that I have a title attribute.  It seems that if the text field is not set to disabled it shows the title attribute correctly as a tooltip but if disabled it does not show.

As a comparison you can load my test page up in IE and it will show the tooltip.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a webpage that with the following in the code:
<input name="textfield" title="This should display tooltip" type="text" disabled="disabled" value="This is the value." />
Optionally, you can visit http://meetmeonthe.net/testField.html.
2. Load in Firefox and put your mouse over the text box disabled text box.
3. You will notice that a tooltip is not shown.
4. If you put your mouse over the box that is not disabled it shows up correctly.
Actual Results:  
You will notice that a tooltip is not shown.

Expected Results:  
The tooltip should show up displaying what was put in the "title" attribute of the input element.
