Overlapping tool-tips (topic comes with a suggestion)
Hello,A little trick with tool-tips : Opera displays a link's URL as a tool-tip whenever the mouse is over it. Some web-masters may also add tool-tip informations in links (ex. using the Title attribute). This ends into a context where a link has two tool-tips.
Opera displays both and does not care it may overlap. See the following picture.
Overlapping tool-tips : cannot read one of both
This occurs with a link in this example. Perhaps the same may also occurs in others circumstances.
What about a feature giving Opera the ability to render tool-tips so that it does not overlap ?
May be merging all tool-tips into a single one may be an idea ?
@Moderators: should I post this in the wishes list instead of there ?

The problem here is that the site is drawing its own tooltip using regular HTML elements, not that Opera is drawing two tooltips (note the slightly different border colours in your screenshot and missing shadow on the HTML tooltip). A more obvious example is http://tvguide.co.uk/ - note the styled HTML tooltips, which are then hidden by Opera's own tooltip.
Opera is doing the correct thing, in my opinion; if there is a title attribute on a link, it's sensible to show it in a tooltip. I did write a UserScript to fix the problem on tvguide.co.uk, but I can see that it would be nice to find a solution for this that didn't involve patching every website that used this "trick". I can't think of one myself, though!

You're right BernYves, I've missed that.
