That particular tooltip is detailed data for an experienced user.
It explains the meaning of the specific character that the mouse is on.
It does not give general info for a beginnin user
about the purpose of displaying that character.

There is a good reason to present that detailed data.
Experienced users will sometimes find it useful.

Can we find a good way to present both the general explanation
and the specific data?
