Since I never got an answer, and just **could not** do this on my own,
I've given up.

It's also occurred to me that bringing a marker to the front when
mousing around the map may not be a desirable function. I'm of two
minds about it. Doing it from the sidebar makes a fairly obvious thing
happen: roll over text/flash marker to front and color it/roll off and
see it return to previous state while a different one flashes/etc. But
you're not pointing at a marker on the map.

If  markers are overlapping, when you point at a sliver of one of them
on the map, that's the active marker. As soon as you roll over a
different sliver, that marker is active. The way my map now works,
markers change color and tooltips appear, and the normal overlapping
behaviors are preserved. If rolling over a sliver brought the entire
marker to te front, what then?

Should all of the "newly frontmost" marker be active? In some sense,
only the original sliver of it should be. Most of the new marker
covering up other markers that represent different places on the map.
Interesting.

I guess the paradigm of "markers" that represent points is in some way
kind of odd. The user is clicking a place on the map that isn't really
the place being indicated. Interesting.
