applying a flexible #CSS z-index stack fixed a lot of messy legacy layering issues for me. There might be better ways, but this is very readable when applied, some examples:

.is-sticky {
position: sticky;

}

.notification {
z-index: var(--alert-z);
}

A few things I learned while writing the #css #zindex chapter:

- Don't mention the bloody z-axis. It only gives the poor student one more useless concept to grasp.

- We need a property that says: "I am NOT a stacking context". Sort-of the opposite of isolation: isolate.
isolation: PLEASE-NO-DONT?

- Using the word 'preposterous' in a z-index context is fine. It's desirable, in fact.

- I should give readers tips for finding wayward stacking contexts, but I don't have any.

Managing Z-Index In A Component-Based Web Application — Smashing Magazine

The `z-index` property, despite all that’s written about it, is still widely misunderstood and mishandled. Stacking issues in a complex single-page web application can become a major pain. Adhering to some principles, however, we can easily avoid these issues.
