For layers, 'right click on layer' -> 'info' should provide everything
that is in the tooltip. I fear adding more and more options does not
solve the problem. Often a reasonable default behaviour is simply what
is required.
Tooltip should be short: I cannot even read all the text on the gpx
layer tooltip because it is hidden again after some time. So maybe we
can keep the layer list tooltips, but rework them.
