Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] The Popover API (previously Popup) (Issue #743)

> I feel this is something that should be controlled by CSS

I'm not involved in the popover API, but again I strongly oppose this idea for the reasons stated in https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/743#issuecomment-1314204961

In a CSS-controlled top layer, what controls the z-order within the top layer of the elements? It's going to be completely arbitrary. It will pretty much behave the same as `z-index: MAX_VALUE` and have the same problems.

For consistency with other things in the top layer at the moment, perhaps a better way is a JS call that doesn't push to the top layer.
