Bug Description

It would be nice if a tool tip could pop up (after hovering for a second) showing the full field in the library table when the column is too narrow to show the whole thing.

Unless someone whips this up (it's easy) it's not going in 1.8.0. In order to do this, all that is required is to respond to the tooltip query (role = Qt::ToolTipRole) in every TableModel's data() method.

I have whipped this up. All library tables (except browse because I can't find where to do it) now show tool tips with the full value of the field. (Long ones like location could do with some word-wrapping though.) This is in 1.8 branch r2441.
