Description Felipe Heidrich CLA 2011-01-17 16:07:37 EST 
On Firefox, hold the mouse button down and move out of the client area (to the top or bottom). The editor starts scrolling and a bogus tooltip shows next the mouse cursor, it shows the text of the last tooltip or an empty tooltip (when no previous tooltip existed).

this is a bug in Firefox and can be reproduced by a simple html including only a few divs with the inner one having style.position:fixed.
I believe this problem is fixed in Firefox 4 (pre-release)

Firefox bug. Doesn't seem critical enough for us to attempt working around this...
