I’ve just seen on IRC that there is at least one known issue with z-ordering already logged in bugzilla:
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84127 Fernand, the bug report is sort of long, but does this look like it could be a similar issue? What would be *really* helpful is an exact set of steps to reproduce the problem, but I know that’s sometimes quite difficult to get hold of. :-) Maybe some sort of test matrix of actions needs to be put together, though this could get too large to manage after a certain number of objects and actions moving the objects backwards and forwards occur.
