I'm not a master Scribist (Scribe? Scribista?) myself, and I _sometimes_ 
need a hint. But if keep tooltips always on for this purpose, most of 
the time they're just a distraction popping up and covering icons that 
I'm looking at. I'd really prefer a separate panel that I could switch 
on or off somewhere in the "View" menu.
