Description
When a command_output_tooltip_* key is used we get excessive calling of the command on mouseovers.
The signal_query_tooltip callback is called for all mouse movement over the widget.

Research direction
Start in src/panel/widgets/command-output.cpp at the cited location and inspect how the signal_query_tooltip callback invokes the command. Reproduce the issue by moving the mouse over the widget while using a command_output_tooltip_* key. Done means mouse movement no longer causes excessive command executions while tooltip behavior remains available.
