Looks cool. I think I would find it more useful if I could see a demo (not of the authoring, but of the result).

Thanks! If you create some tooltips on the page and refresh the page, you kind of get a feel of what it would be like for a visitor (though "Hide" won't permanently hide the tooltips in that state).

This is not evident from your demo. Can you include the tooltips to show up by default in your demo page? I am guessing most people would first want to see how the tooltips come up, before they get interested in editing/authoring them.

Yeah, but before I get to trying out your features I want to experience it as a user would.

I would recommend creating another page for this user experience, calling it the 'demo', and changing the current demo page to a 'try it now' page.
