Likewise, I went to a lot of trouble to get tooltips to work on the console
where they always appear in the mini-buffer (they don't currently work in
the mode-line but could be made to do so).

Apparently they are meant to "help newbies" so it's ironic that they might
need to learn how to turn them off.

At the risk of being disabused by Dan, I would suggest that these tooltips are
reverted to single line tips.
