  This is happenning due to `z-index` being set to 0 on an ancestor html 
element `div.mw-body-content`.

  question is why that z-index was set to 0. If we cannot remove it, I'm afraid 
the only solution is to change OOUI widget used here so that it moves the popup 
element as a direct child of `body` (usual solution for in popup libraries to 
avoid this problem) which is not a small thing and not in our scope.
  
  So our options:
  
  - **cheapest, not sure if possible yet** remove `z-index` on
  - **very expensive, should be possible** change OOUI widget so that it uses 
the proper solution for this know html limitation with `z-index`
  
  Let's try the first and investigate/get-feedbcak on it first?
