[news.eclipse.platform.swt] TableViewer and CellLabelProviders

I have a table viewer with ten columns. I'd like to provide cell tooltips 
for two of those columns only. The rest don't require tooltips. I followed 
the code in Snippet011CustomTooltips, but I wasn't seeing my tooltips. I 
didn't noticed that a label provider hadn't been set on the table viewer in 
the snippet. It appears that if a label provider is set on the viewer, any 
column CellLabelProviders are ignored.

I had assumed that the viewer would use its label provider unless a 
CellLabelProvider exists for a column, in which case it would use the 
CellLabelProvider. Is there a way to make that happen, so I don't have to 
set ten CellLabelProviders to get tooltips in two columns?
