Well, clearly I must be doing something wrong, as (using official Fire 
1.0.4) my tooltip doesn't display the buddy-set alias. It displays the 
exact same thing that the buddy list displays. That is "My Alias 
([email protected])". Is there some sort of magic manipulation 
required to produce the result you're getting?
