Subject: 24.3.50; Tooltips got hidden by the dock on OSX
Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2013 18:29:09 +0800

This is just a minor nuisance.

put mouse over the mode line, when the tooltip window
pops up, it is hidden by the dock sometimes

I think the tooltip window should be drawn at least at level
NSPopUpMenuWindowLevel so it can be shown over the
dock.
