@sarajw It bugs me how every time I run into this genre of problem I have to go on a fantastic journey of rediscovery on how element positioning works! I never ever retain this stuff
My main problem here is trying to make a tooltip be available inside a modal. The tooltip thingy in the headless component UI we're using ends up underneath the <dialog> modal.
So I need something that'll pop up on top, otherwise I'm going to have to use the component provided that doesn't use dialog.
Looks like popover is not quite what I thought it was - I thought it would appear where it would have otherwise have shown up in the DOM anyway. Hmm hmmmm.
