Hover keep visible?

[Siyfion]

For example please see a modified version of the CodePen you did a while ago: http://codepen.io/Siyfion/pen/axgEH

Is there anyway we can get the popover to stay open while the mouse is within the bounds of the tooltip/popover? Or, can we expose a $close() or $hide() method on the internal scope so that the popover doesn't just sit there after the user interacts with it and moves the mouse away?

This is an example of how you could do it using jQuery:

It is a dirty workaround, but it works - you may consider this approach if you need to get things done.

I believe this interface ($close, $hide, etc) will be available when the official implementation is released.

@jbruni I don't know how easy it would be to expose a $close function to the template scope, but that, in addition to using https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/directive/ngMouseleave within the template, would be enough to do this in a reasonably elegent way...?
