The "description" field of a bookmark is rarely used. It occurred to me that a valuable way to use it would be to display it as a tooltip when scanning your bookmarks via the dropdown menu. There should be an adequate pause before display so as not to be intrusive. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to Bookmarks with mouse
2. Maneuver mouse into personal bookmarks
3. Notice no tooltip appear for stationary mouse hoving over bookmark item
Actual Results:  
No tooltip appears

Expected Results:  
Tooltip should appear with description
