Research direction
Start by locating the XML argument handling for tip_delay::int_gte_zero and the existing tooltip or window-layer rendering entry points. Trace how xml_res_loc-based settings are resolved for a window. Done means the tip supports delayed display, highest-layer rendering, early closing through an X button, and permanent per-window hiding.
