Also, I'd like to re-iterate my objection to exposing the name "top layer" explicitly to the web platform. These are the reasons why: * There is general confusion with the name "top layer", e.g. is it the "topmost" element in the top-layer, or is this every element in the top layer? (In the specs, it refers to the the whole stack of elements). * Top layer was meant as an UA implementation detail to alleviate `z-index` issues. It's OK to document it, just like we document UA presentational hints, but I believe it's generally a bad pattern to expose this vocabulary to the language itself. If we want to consider exposing top layer to random elements, I think that's a discussion that needs to happen independently, with a proper discussion around naming, before exposing it to the language. -- GitHub Notification of comment by nt1m Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/8189#issuecomment-1379346958 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
