Issue 2612: Bookmark bar tooltips fail to hide

Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
Safari 3: OK
Firefox 3: OK
IE 7: OK
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Hover over bookmark bar item until tooltip appears.
2. Move mouse quickly to page content area.
3. Try again, it seems to be dependent on how fast you move the mouse.
What is the expected result?
Tooltips should hide when the mouse leaves the bookmark bar (or even
better, when it leaves the bookmark button) every time.
What happens instead?
Occasionally (seemingly dependent on speed and possibly whether or not you
cross the tooltip itself) the tooltip will not hide even if focus is
changed to elements in the page and it will continue to obscure the page
contents until you move the mouse back to the bookmark bar.
This has to be the single most annoying UI bug in Chromium for me at this
point since it can happen accidentally after you search and move the mouse
down from the address bar to the page to scroll or click. I find myself
frequently having to interrupt what I'm doing and move the mouse to the
bookmark bar to get rid of a stray tooltip.
The frequency with which I see it may be due to a habitual quirk of mine
but I doubt I'm the only one. When I select the address bar to type a new
address or search term, I invariably move the mouse out of the address bar
before typing to avoid it obscuring letters with the mouse cursor --
typically down onto the bookmark bar which activates a bookmark tooltip.
This it a totally unconscious action when dealing with text entry in any
textbox in any application.
Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.
