There is a request to add tool tips for badged nodes (http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=123469). API was created in org.openide.util.ImageUtilities to allow to set or add html tool tip for given Image (Icon). During badging of icons (image merging) tool tips are automatically merged too. See attachment for example of assigning tool tips for VC badges. It remains to add tool tip also for "color status" of individual files. See http://wiki.netbeans.org/BadgedIcons for details.
