[Bug 894387] [NEW] "Include an attachment" tooltip appears over file chooser window and does not ever disappear

[Sian Aherne]

Public bug reported:

There seems to be a race condition around the tooltip for "Include an
attachment."  If you click on the Add Attachment button before the
tooltip appears, but presumably as it's being prepared, the tooltip
shows over top of the modal file chooser window, and over top of any
other application.  If the tooltip is already showing when you click on
Add Attachment, this does not occur.

This does not appear to be specific to Unity or compiz, as I've run
metacity --replace and reproduced this same behaviour.
