A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
There is no way to control the addition of a mnemonic to the end of the text in a tooltip.

JUSTIFICATION :
Adding the mnemonic may confuse some users, while other uses may prefer the added help. It would be good to be able to control this behaviour programmatically. The addition of the method would allow code to be added to enable/disable the feature based on user preferences.
