65674	Tooltip Delay Timer Race Condition (wp-includes/js/wp-tooltip.js)	fahimmurshed		"The timer variable (`openTimeout`) used to delay tooltip opening was declared in the outer scope of the script's wrapper function. Because it was shared globally across all tooltips, event listeners on separate tooltips interacted with the exact same timer instance. When a user moved their mouse cursor or used keyboard Tab navigation to switch tooltips, the blur/mouseleave event on the previous tooltip would clear the shared timer. This cleared any pending timeout for the next tooltip, preventing it from opening entirely.

**Impact:** Severe keyboard accessibility breakdown (preventing consecutive tooltip views during Tab traversal) and erratic mouse-hover behavior."	defect (bug)	new	normal	Awaiting Review	General	7.0.2	normal		has-patch has-unit-tests		javascript
