API to make it possible to add tooltips in the editor (http://www.sublimetext.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2670)
A tooltips API should be thought to make it possible to have function call tips with integrated documentation added by plugins and perhaps color for syntax highlighting. Also tooltips could be made to render graphics or colors (as for instance to make it possible to see the actual color when one hovers a CSS color in the code)
+1. This is the main lack of sublime text, it prevents me to fully use this editor.
It would be really really usefull for building a tooltip documentation in sublimecodeintel and when hovering functions with mouse.
Would really love to see an API for tooltips!
Many plugins could make great use of this.
Just to mention a recent plugin in development that would really benefit from this it Ternjs:

Let´s make this happen, please ;-)
Yes, we know what a tool tip looks like.
