[xep-support] z-index

According to the release notes for XEP 4.2, the z-index property should 
work for block-containers with fixed absolute positions, but try as I 
might, I cannot get z-index to work.

Specifically, I would like to for the text in region-body to be drawn 
on top of an instream SVG element.  I know I could use an SVG file as a 
background image, but since the SVG is itself generated on the fly by 
the XSLT transformation, that would be very inconvenient.  (In fact, I 
use an SVG path to clip another image.  Or rather, I would like to do 
so -- that was the subject of a previous question that remains 
unanswered.)

Should z-index indeed work in XEP 4.3?  Is there another way to 
influence the order in which objects are drawn?
