Setting documentation should be in a tooltip or displayed by demand #768

Problem

Currently, in the new settings browser, each setting displays documentation below its presenter "setter." This layout consumes too much space and makes reading confusing.

Solution

Provide help, as tooltips are activated when the mouse hovers. Also, provide a small text presenter to display the help when the setting text is clicked. To improve help awareness, the presenters used as setters (text inputs, checkboxes, etc.) could include a small help button with "?" as a label.
