That is part of the problem - not all platforms support window translucency, so that actually would not be that easy.

It is best to add a feature request to JIRA and then see what comments arise. (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT) For desktop applications, this kind of tooltip makes sense, but the current tooltip works fine in applets as well. I imagine that the fade-out transition of the tooltip can probably be handled too with a little effort. I have attached my hacked together example in case you or anyone else is interested.
