Internal Note: Was done deliberately in 13cfbe1 due to #6586.
Considering that bar is a series type with directTouch: true, this is actually intended behaviour.
Must be able to differentiate between these two behaviours in a logical way.

1. wrong context for click callback (#6586)
2. hover blank area, expect to see tooltip for corresponding column, but not (this issue)
   In theory, these two issues seem to be irrelevant, so I think they should be all solved.
   Maybe some share code has bind them together, I'll spend some spare time to see if I can help this.
