Pull request overview
This PR modernizes the overlay service by adopting the native Popover API to manage element layering, replacing the traditional z-index approach. The implementation adds the popover="manual" attribute to overlay wrapper elements and uses showPopover()/hidePopover() methods to control visibility in the browser's top layer.
Changes:
- Added Popover API integration with
showPopover()call before positioning andhidePopover()during cleanup - Removed z-index styling in favor of browser-managed top layer positioning
- Added comprehensive style overrides to reset browser default popover styles while maintaining custom overlay positioning
