Description

Hi

Every time I develop documentation using notebook which I later convert to latex, I often need to look up for past labels to reference. For this I need to either double click the numbered equation every time and see the label or should right click and see its math jax.

Is it possible to provide a customized tool tip for at least display mode equations? I understand this could be borderline scope for jupyter, but Mathjax already offers tooltip as per link [here](http://www.onemathematicalcat.org/MathJaxDocumentation/toolTips.htm), but that is not working as its not recognized. Please let me know if any better workarounds available if this cannot be taken as FR.
