Will do.

I'm fine with the default Image's zorder at 0 -- I'm explicitly setting 
it for the cases I'm interested in anyway, and I think that would give 
better consistency with the old way. Also, I think this is better and 
more explicit than just inserting them at the beginning of the dsu list 
and relying on a stable sort to keep them drawn below various patches, 
which is how I interpreted your meaning for that approach.

I'll check in this change, too.
