Multi-line text popup on mouse-over

I’ve had a request to add something to my module akin to Cyberboard’s tooltips that display when hovering over a piece.

From my attempt to do this, it seems that the Text Label trait allows you split text into multiple lines using basic HTML tags–however, the text label is omnipresent, which isn’t what I want. I can put the text into a Marker and have that display above the piece in the mouse-over stack viewer, but then there doesn’t seem to be a way to split text into multiple lines (HTML is not parsed here).

Is there any solution, or would this be a new feature request?

I don’t know of any way to do this presently.
