[Req] Add option to not have the cursor obscure tooltips/popups

I have an enlarged cursor setting, on all my machines (helpful for my failing eyesight).

REQUEST: Any chance of adding an option to either:
  • Have the right side of the popup box appear at the cursor's position, instead of the left side.
  • Add an x-character-size padding to the left vertical side of the popup box(es), so the text is pushed over to the right
My preference would be for the popups to be right-side-aligned, so instead of this....

As a recovering Repetive-Strain-Injuree, I appreciate any and all mousing efficiency considered into a GUI, no matter how small the improvement. So another side benefit of this, for me, would be less distance for the mouse to travel when needing to select any of the secondary-level menu options below in the context popup (which I seem to do quite often), e.g....

Thanks for considering! :)
