OS:                Linux

If I have several windows of a certain app, they get grouped in taskbar. When I
want to activate one of them I press button on the taskbar, the window list
opens. After I put the mouse pointer on one of the items, tooltip appears. This
tooltip obscures other buttons, so I can't activate other windows quickly - I
must make tooltip go away first.

This is minor issue, but it would be good to fix, so that the user doesn't have
to do these unnecessary actions to select window from the group :)

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have some app's windows grouped in a taskbar
2. Press the window group's button to activate window list menu
3. Hover item at bottom of the list, wait for tooltip to appear

Actual Results:  
Tooltip will appear just above the bottom-most item, covering above items,
making it impossible to select them

I'm adding a small screenshot to explain this visually :)

Expected Results:  
Tooltip should appear above *all* of the items, i.e. above window list menu of
the taskbar
