Either provide them for *every* control or not at all,
and *please*
provide a way to disable them.

Ideally there should be a way to enable/disable them
from every part
of your application, so that an experienced user has them off (and out
of the way) but on using an obscure feature can briefly re-enable
them.
And, whoever thought it was a good idea, gets 10 lashes for doing the 10
second time out when the thing is stting on the next damned button you
need. Damit folks, if you have to have it, kill the SOB when the mouse
moves the next pixel! Let us get on with our work.
