showed the event fields are not completely implemented.
Is there a timeframe you would like this implemented by? I can probably complete this in 1-2 days, depending on need.
It looks like things would be easy if we gave you access the w3c-standard MouseEvent object that caused the event. Would you prefer this? What works best for you?

Cytoscape.js uses the jQuery event model: It creates an event object, referencing the original event. If an event is triggered -- say in the renderer -- without passing the original event, then there isn't much information in the event you get in your callback.
You don't really need event information for what you're doing anyway. Inside the handler callback, the reference to `this` is the element that triggered the event. You can do `this.renderedPosition()`, `this.width()`, and so on. This will give you enough information to position the qtip.
I will be creating a Cytoscape.js extension that let's you use qtips directly. So if you can wait a couple of weeks, that may be the better option for you.

I'm not sure if you still need it, but it has been fixed. I've commited some changes, and a recent bugfix should also appear on the public docu/demo page http://cytoscape.github.com/cytoscape.js/.
You can verify by opening the console (such as on the docu page) and typing:
