Description
I've seen this on several sites, the most recent in memory being youtube.com, where Sidebar+ is on top of youtube's menu on the left:

It's my opinion that this isn't really Sidebar+'s fault, but rather the fault of bad CSS on the offending websites. Case in point, even youtube's own devs refers to the overlapping element's CSS as:

Nevertheless, it is our problem. I've played around with Sidebar+'s and youtube's CSS a little, but have as of yet been unable to find a solution I'm confident can be generalized to all sites. I'm not very skilled at CSS, but here are some things that come to mind as far as solutions go:
- Due to the diversity of of sites this has to work on, I seriously doubt this can be solved solely by editing the CSS of the parent sidebar element
- Maybe there is a way to trick the main site into thinking the screen starts?
- Maybe the sidebar can be placed in a separate parent element, as a sibling to the main element?
- Another option is to inspect the properties of all direct children of , and modify the CSS of those that would overlap Sidebar+
I'd be happy to put in some work on this, but I figure that I should at least get your thoughts on this first @zluca.
