Hello Haiku devs, I need some advice on a UI problem I've encountered.
In hrev45298 I added a "Close tab" tool tip to the close button of
WebPositive's tab. However, several dev's complained and so I reverted
the change in hrev45311. But, I noticed a UI problem with the tool
tip. The following screenshot illustrates the problem:

The tab's label is shown in the tool tip, even over the tab's close
button. For a new tab this means the tool tip reads "New tab". This is
misleading because when you hover over the close button the tool tip
pops up as "New tab" which makes it look like the close button opens a
new tab instead of closing the current one. I can think of 3
solutions:
1. Return to displaying a "Close tab" tool tip over the close tab button.
2. Remove the tool tip when over the close tab button.
3. Remove the tab tool tip entirely.
Or we could just live with it as is. What do you guys think?
