Which elements specifically, and what should the tooltips say? Tooltips can get annoying pretty fast because people usually know after the first mouse over what they do – if not obvious from just the general appearance.
I like when I get a keyboard short-cut on mouse-over for buttons and such. I also like an explaining text for buttons that are icons (I have a vivid imagination and sometimes I can think of other meanings than the intended). Sometimes, I like those two in a combination.
I can wait one or two seconds for the tool-tip, so they shouldn't interfere with normal usage.
Pushed a naive implementation (using title-attributes) of this to develop
All the actionable (and preferably more) elements should have tool tips that are displayed on mouse over.
