Missing option to disable the tooltip

[gitterman]

I am on 0.9.11 on Windows 11, and for a few weeks now I get nagged by the tooltip from wincompose which frequently appears and stays open, even without hovering over the tray icon at all. Unless I actively unhide the taskbar and/or hover over the wincompose tray icon, the tooltip stays open and covers other windows content which is really annoying. I guess the issue came up after I had updated windows to 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5027231) some weeks ago. I have all tray icons set to be shown in the taskbar settings, which is a security and usability issue for me. I have also set the taskbar to auto-hide so that it doesn't take screen estate when not needed. Unfortunately, there is no option to disable the wincompose tooltip. I had been running wincompose 0.9.11 happily without the tooltip problem on Windows 10 and after my desktop upgrade to W11 since February. I found issues #359 and #426 which describe a similar problem and which are marked as "possibly fixed", but are still open. As my issue did not show up until recently, I think the cause may be different. Please either check if the bug can be fixed or add an option to disable the tooltip.

I used to have this problem and it seemed like it went away, but more recently it is happening very frequently again.

Yup. I've got this same problem.
