[racket] How to disable a couple of things in drracket

The arrows are definitely far more distracting because they overlap  
everything and pop up whenever i have to click somewhere. The tooltips and  
the thingy in the top right corner aren't bothering me, it took me quite a  
while to realize they are there...

An option for disabling the arrows and/or adjusting the time before they  
pop up would be perfect.
