In toolkit-provided tooltips, we don't. But Emacs has its own native
tooltips, where everything that works in a "normal" frame can work in
a tooltip.

Not only that, I'd hesitate to accept such a contribution, because its
long-term maintenance would most probably be a constant burden, and if
the person(s) who develop such a "native" toolkit go on to greener
pastures, we will be left with an unmaintained subsystem.
So I don't think it is a good idea for Emacs to develop its own
toolkit. We should use what's out there.
