I followed up on this bug myself by looking at the source for the network-manager-applet project. The 'Attempting...' string is found at src/applet-device-wifi.c:1243 of the branch I cloned. So it would appear that the code to display this tooltip is still available. I just need to figure out why it isn't being displayed.
