A tooltip is an additional piece of content that appears when you hover
your mouse over something. Usually, that content appears under your
mouse pointer. They're called tooltips as they were originally tips on
what the icons in a tool bar were for.
Actually, I think I need to revise what I've said previously. People
don't expect alt tags to work as tooltips: they expect them to give
further information on an image, which may or may not function as a tooltip.

Depends how much you need the site and just how bad they're being. If
there's a whole load of other sites that do what I want, I'll avoid
those that are broken.
