QML ToolTip impossible to rely on

Hello,

ToolTip has a main issue: it is a Popup. It means that the following code will lead to different results depending on the situation (with hoverArea, a MouseArea):

ToolTip {
    id: tooltip
    text: "Hello World!"
    visible: hoverArea.containsMouse
    x: myXPos
    y: myYPos
}

The two different results are the following:

1. The tooltip is displayed outside of the hoverArea, it's fine, it works.
2. The tooltip is displayed under the mouse, i.e. above the hoverArea, and then the hoverArea won't "containMouse" anymore because ToolTip is a Popup, that will steal the mouse. That will lead the ToolTip to immediately disappear => the bug is here.

I believe the ToolTip should not be a Popup to avoid to steal the mouse events. I can't find any workaround, such as preventStealing or anything that don't work.

It makes the component most of the time impossible to rely on since the positioning is (as documentation says) made by the framework depending on the available space, etc. and not necessarily by what the developer writes in the x/y properties.

Thanks by advance,
Louis
