[pygtk] query-tooltip problems

Hi Everyone --

I want to catch when the mouse is hovered over a certain widget and call 
  a method at the same time a tooltip popup would appear.

So I connected the widget to the query-tooltip signal like this.

widget.set_tooltip_text("Hello World!")
widget.connect("query-tooltip", self.hover)

But self.hover is called as soon as the mouse enters the widget's 
allocation.  There is no delay.  There is, however, a delay for the 
appearance of the tooltip.

Does anyone know how can I call self.hover at the same time a tooltip 
appears?

Thanks,

Gary
