A popover on top of a modal dialog should be interactable #9936

Here is a write up of the issue: https://benfrain.com/failing-with-multiple-dialog-elements-understanding-the-top-layer-and-popovers/

And from that a simple reduction of what I feel is an issue: https://benfrain.com/playground/modals/popover/

I'd opened a bug originally on the Chromium bug tracker: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1502869

Following that and the related bug https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1502133 I am here.

I feel it is counterintuitive for authors to have popovers in the top layer, appearing above a modal dialog but for that popover to be impossible to interact with.

If a popover is appearing on top of a dialog, in this case by design, it stands to reason (to me anway) one might want to interact with it.
