[bitbake-devel] [PATCH 0/6] Hob GUI add persistent tooltips and use custom info icon consistently

[Joshua Lock]

Whoops. Forgot to hit save in my editor before sending... The message 
should be:

The following series addresses some issues I've raised with the Hob 
implementation.
Firstly it introduces two new widgets, a generic PersistentTooltip 
widget which is an implementation of a tooltip like widget that persists 
until the user explicitly dismisses it, this matches the Hob interaction 
design more closely.
The second widget is a button-like widget using the info icon from the 
visual design which, when clicked, will display a persistent tooltip.

The series then replaces all known instances of a gtk.Image containing 
the stock info item plus a standard tooltip with the new HobInfoButton.

The final patch, to ensure consistency, special cases the stock info 
icon in the CrumbsMesssageDialog so that any dialogues which show an 
info icon will display the custom icon per the visual design.

Cheers,
Joshua

Note: this is attempt two at sending this follow on, attempt one is 
stuck awaiting moderation as I tried to include screenshots....
