Very true, and that's why I asked Apple in a Radar to fix it since, if it CAN be done, they're more in a position to do it (masters of the hardware and software) than relying upon each developer to make secondary screens.
Maybe the hint text could be a layer not available for secondary device consumption on top of the actual bullet being displayed? Maybe a bit slow/cumbersome and possibly only activated when a secondary screen is used, but that's how I might start out trying to do it myself. I haven't tried it myself, but I wonder if screenshots are only possible with the bullet and no hint text; maybe a tie-in? It's all academic for us; this needs to be addressed by Apple, so file your Radar you've been threatening to do, and maybe it'll make the next upgrade. -- Gary L.
