      Description

      As part of improvements made to the ice:panelTooltip positioning behavior in ICE-4853 we made it so the panelTooltip will track along with the mouse while the mouse is inside the triggering component. This is aesthetically nice, but can cause problems for applications that require users to be able to click on a component inside the panelTooltip.

      To resolve this and to prevent backwards compatibility issues we should add a new attribute to the ice:panelTooltip component called "moveWithMouse", which, when enabled, will cause the panelTooltip to track with the mouse. It will be disabled (false) by default to avoid backwards compatibility issues with existing applications.

        Note that this configuration parameter should only affect the active positioning aspect of the panelTooltip with the mouse, and not any of the other positioning improvements made in ICE-4853, those should always be applied.
