I know for sure you can set its opacity in a Theme. That may mitigate your problem with it.

So, a combination of two properties seems to work best.
When you only set the Opacity to zero, the tooltip wil flash when entering the Binder space.
When you also set the Text property to an empty string, the ToolTip will be minimal in size.
All other properties of the QToolTip control are irrelevant in that case.

QToolTip {
    qproperty-text: "";
    opacity: 0;
}

Now, this solution won’t work in the Default Windows Theme, because we cannot save that theme to file.
It can be implemented in the White Theme, which is build to resemble the Default Windows Theme.

You’ll have to unzip the .scrtheme file and add above code to the QSS file that emerges from the .scrtheme. After zipping again and renaming to .scrtheme, you can load the updated Theme from file.
