Just saw a Yes/No dialog (in KDE, I specify, to avoid confusion) with tooltips installed on the Yes and No pushbuttons. The tooltips read "Yes" and "No" respectively. I'm flabbergasted!

usa^WHAT?
Oh no! I fear and hope KDE isn't getting as broken in this respect as Gnome is. When you have [ok] [cancel] everyone knows what to do, but having these idiotic
[Yes, I want this chick to undress] [No, I'm gay and want a boy]
stuff somehow always forces you to read the text on the buttons, which takes time and is very annoying, imho. I really hope that KDE is not evolving in this direction...
What did you expect?
A 200 line long story about the functionality of the Yes button?

"This is the No button. It has a very negative personality, it is the black sheep of the family of buttons. It will deny you anything its brother the Yes button would allow you to do"
