The tooltip display in the echo area also doesn't follow the mouse, so
it doesn't sound to me as if this case is a significant difference.
Users who have tooltip-use-echo-area non-nil already indicate that
they "give up" the position of the tool-tip text display on the
screen, and don't mind to see all the tool-tips in the same place
regardless of where the mouse is.
