      This came up during review of JDK-8190411.

      Current behavior:
      -----------------------
      Tooltip has consumeAutoHidingEventsProperty which defaulted to true. This results in Tooltip (if visible) consuming mouse press events.
      For example: If Tooltip is visible on a Slider, then the first mouse click on slider track hides the Tooltip. Another mouse click is needed on the slider track to make slider thumb move to that position.

      Expected behavior:
      -------------------------
      We should consider changing the default value of consumeAutoHidingEventsProperty for Tooltip to false, so that they will not consume auto-hiding events by default.
