I don't think GTK+'s tooltips can be used for menus. I've definitely
never seen a GTK+ menu with tooltips.

+Additional features for the Mandrake Linux XMMS package.

+
+The A-B feature
+---
+
+The A-B feature by Rodrigo Martins de Matos Ventura was found here:
+http://lists.xmms.org/pipermail/xmms-devel/2002-January/002282.html
+And was rediffed by Oden Eriksson Tue 18 Nov 2003.
+
+Here's Rodrigos explaination what it is about:
+
+I just did a minor patch to CVS version of xmms, in order to
+add a small but very useful (at least to me) feature: A-B
+repetition. My old CD player has it, and it is extremely useful,
+namely for transcribing music.
+
+The idea is simple: anytime during play, you press the A key
+(marks A point), the music keeps playing, when you press the A key
+again (marks B point), it loops endlessly between the two marked
+points, until the S key is pressed (clear), or a new A point is
+marked. Morover, whenever a A-B range is defined, the play
+button/menu jumps straight to the A position.
