Yes, this was deliberate; you may recall the arms race with Echo where you kept
breaking VE with your z-index changes for three weeks, hence this setting
whilst we waited for Echo to stop changing. :-)

That's specifically bug 49275, but yes, that is related to this. The "proper"
solution to this is putting the entire save dialog in its own iframe (like all
the dialogs we've created since the new dialog system was built), but it's too
close to deployment to do major changes like that.
