What info do you want it to show, specifically? The same info as mouseovering it on the left sidebar?

That would be a good start, yes.
What to include into the exo tooltips always is a problem to me.

I often find myself wishing for e.g. the trap skill level because I am thinking about moving over a mine etc., so this might be a good addition.

Regen and damage reduction are things I tend to look up occasionally as well by right clicking the portrait (which is still not mentioned anywhere as an available option in-game as far as I know).

In retrospect, I'd really like to see additional information about the OTHER exos on the left sidebar popup.

For the currently selected exo, the things that you can't see easily would be helpful (regen, damage reduction -- thanks nas1m!) -- but what I suggest below is implemented for the left sidebar portraits, the hovering over your current exo doesn't really need anything done (or you could show the same popup then too).

--

For the left sidebar popups, I'd really like to also be able to see the number of stealth points, virus, mines, turrets, etc. Ideally, being able to see the attack and range of weapons would be great as well.

I'm not sure how realistic it is, but basically condensing the blocks from the customize screen and displaying them on the popup would be really helpful.

So, the existing left sidebar exo popup remains as-is, but adds all the rest beneath the description:

Regen: x Damage Reduction: x Stealth Actions: x/x Trap Skill Level: x Overload Level: x

Sensor Range: x Hacking Points: x/x Virus Points: x/x Sentry Turrets: x/x Mines: x/x

Weapon 1 Attack Power: x Attack Range: x Ammo: x/x
Weapon 2 Attack Power: x Attack Range: x Splash Size: x Ammo: x/x
Weapon 3 Attack Power: x Attack Range: x Ammo: x/x

For 1.011:

* Greatly expanded the mission left-sidebar tooltips for your exos so you can see each exo's stats at a glance.
** In the past we've tried to keep those very small to avoid info saturation, but ultimately the game's model doesn't allow for an informative interface that doesn't have a lot of data.

Thanks :)

And I basically went with the format you suggested, ScrObot, so I think all the relevant numbers are in there.
