There is a tooltip on the mode line, and Emacs' tooltips are enabled
by default, usable and unobtrusive on all platforms with GUI.
However, cough cough, the tool tip reads:
mouse-1: select (drag to resize), mouse-2 = C-x 1, mouse-3 = C-x 0
So while we _have_ sort of a working announcement in place, it is
utterly useless to beginners.
