Tooltip Highlighting

The tooltip that appears on mouse over is now syntax highlighted. Note that only the tooltips provided by ReSharper are currently colored. It is strongly suggested that you enable Color identifiers in ReSharper Options > Code Inspection > Settings since there's almost no tooltip at all if this setting is disabled.

Parameter Info Highlighting

The parameter information popup is now syntax highlighted. The colors used for the types are either the ones having a name starting by ReSharper if Color identifiers is used, or the Visual Studio ones starting with User Types otherwise.
