Or as one _doesn’t_ move the mouse.

I navigate largely by keyboard, which means I pay little attention to where my mouse cursor is resting. Having that kind of pop-up appear for no apparent reason would be both disconcerting and irritating, IMHO. I would definitely want an option to disable it for myself. On click - OK; but not on hover.
