Nice improvement. Thanks.
In testing the new function, I discovered a bug in Mathematica 7 (at
least, not 7.0 for Mac OS X x86 (64-bit) (February 19, 2009) ).
Tooltip[] is not supported in ListPlot:
In[12]:= InputForm[ListPlot[Tooltip[Range[4], "Data"]]]
Out[12]//InputForm=
Graphics[{Hue[0.67, 0.6, 0.6], Point[{{1., 1.}, {2., 2.}, {3., 3.},
{4.,
4.}}]}, {AspectRatio -> GoldenRatio^(-1), Axes -> True,
AxesOrigin -> {0, Automatic}, PlotRange -> Automatic,
PlotRangeClipping -> True}]
Notice that the data points are not wrapped in Tooltip. Oddly,
ListLogPlot correctly supports Tooltip.
