Multiple tooltip systems already implmemented in ofbiz?

Something seems off.  Looking at tooltips in ofbiz, there appears to be 2 tooltips systems?

The first is: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Field+Description+tooltip+help
which displays a traditional html tooltip when you hover over the *field label* (not the field itself).

The second is adding 'tooltip="this is a tooltip"' to a field in a Forms.xml file, like:
<field name="productName" title="this is the label" tooltip="This is the tooltip"><text /></field>
Strangely, doing this adds the "tooltip" *after* the field (which is quite unexpected), but with a <span class="tooltip"> wrapped around it.

Various hints imply that there are styles (that relate to css) that can be applied to these tooltips, but web searches are not yielding useful information on how to make the tooltip *hover over the field* via a style instead of being displayed after it.

Is there something obvious that I'm missing?
