Bug Description

Binary package hint: epiphany-browser

While browsing the Ubuntu forums today, I noticed that some of the URL tooltips (I'm not sure of the proper name... the things which pop up over some URLs when you hold the pointer over them) go partially offscreen.

To reproduce:
1. Maximize an Epiphany browser window.
2. Go to http://ubuntuforums.org/
3. Click on any of the available forums.
4. Click on any of the available threads in the forum.
5. At the bottom right of each post, there are 3 icons for performing a "quick-reply". Hold the mouse pointer over one of these icons, and the text which pops up will run partially off-screen.

This may be somehow related to Xinerama/MergedFB, as I am currently using my laptop with an extra display (external display to the right of my laptop display). However, this happens on both screens, so I'm not certain that it has any bearing on the issue.
