Re: Sam Spilsbury:

This absolutely is a bug. Regardless of whether tooltips are marked sticky or not, they are obviously supposed to be transient. This bug says that in some fairly common circumstances, the tooltip shows up for the workspace switcher and then it NEVER GOES AWAY (unless you switch to another workspace again).

I've never seen a tooltip that didn't go away after a short time, and any such tooltip is obviously buggy.

I don't know where the problem lies exactly: maybe an event is missed, maybe something else, but this is unquestionably a bug.
