Roslyn: Cannot Disable C# editor QuickInfo popup

[vsfeedback]

I need to be able to disable the QuickInfo popup in Visual Studio while editing C# code. This 'feature' constantly interferes with my ability to read and navigate my own code.

This has gone from merely distracting to a serious nuisance that has actually resulted in the introduction of bugs in my code.

It is essential that I be able to turn this feature off.

Based on the screenshot attached to the original feedback ticket, this is loosely related to the observation that Quick Info for string literals is not especially helpful. It just says the following:

Represents text as a series of Unicode characters.To browse the .NET Framework source code for this type, see the Reference Source.

WOW! Mads Kristensen just whipped up an extension to solve this problem! It works beautifully! https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=MadsKristensen.ToggleEditorTooltips

The extension only seems to work in the editor. If you hover over the results of a Find All command, you still get the annoying popups.

Still open. Team: Please consider this item as it may be one of the most frustrating unavoidable features of VS.

Specifically, the ability to have it OFF during coding, and ON during debugging would be ideal as that's where it's useful.
