Additionally, the W3C HTML4.01 Specification defines [1] that <option> can have a title attribute. Also Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Internet Explorer 7+ do this well. [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#edef-OPTION

This is trivial to fix on Mac, but somewhat more involved on other platforms.
