Comment (by afercia):

 I agree. On everything :) Need a pragmatic solution though. There are ways
 to use data-attributes or, better, aria-labels to generate "tooltips" see
 for example:
 {{{
 tooltips in Gmail:
 data-tooltip="Refresh" aria-label="Refresh" (uses JavaScript)

 tooltips in GitHub:
 aria-label="You have no unread notifications" (pure CSS on hover/focus,
 JavaScript for positioning)
 }}}

 And we should find a way to reveal them also on a "longpress" event. By
 the way I think this is a topic for a separate ticket and proposal. If it
 was my personal site, I would go with simple, plain text. It's not my
 personal site though :) It wouldn't look so bad:
