> Do you see the violet rectangle?

Yes; the problem is it's a static representation of our code and none of us
could replicate it in Vector (there is a legitimate vertical spacing issue in
Monobook, however). I'm aware that the overlay obstructs the links, but in
practice, I couldn't replicate the problem.

> There are dozens of use cases depending on what is blocked.

Stating that they are common use cases doesn't mean they're common. The fact
that there is only one person bringing this up is likely an indicator of how
common it is.

That's pretty clear; you want clean code that covers edge cases, and that's
understandable. Practical user needs, however, override code perfection. Unless
some indication/data emerges that:

(a) This issue can be replicated by other people and
(b) This is obstructing an actual use case

...then it's not worth anyone's time. We should reopen this if it becomes a
problem for others (or even if someone on the development team can actually
replicate it), but in the mean time, I don't think it's worth addressing this.

PS: Saw your screenshot and the fact that you're using Opera - this helps. Like
I said, we'll keep investigating and worry about it if it seems like a common
user problem.
