/*
  The stack overlay decorates the top stacked window with its icon and
  captures mouse input such that a mouse click only _activates_ the
  window. A very limited portion of the window is visible and due to
  the animation the button-up event will be triggered at an
  unpredictable position

  See #10

/*
  Parent of the overlay?

  Most natural parent is the window actor, but then the overlay
  becomes visible in the clones too.

  Since the stacked windows doesn't really move it's not a big problem
  that the overlay doesn't track the window. The main challenge with
  using a different parent becomes controlling the "z-index".

  If I understand clutter correctly that can only be done by managing
  the order of the scene graph nodes. Descendants of node A will thus
  always be drawn in the same plane compared to a non-descendants.

  The overlay thus have to be parented to `global.window_group`. One
  would think that was ok, but unfortunately mutter keeps syncing the
  window_group with the window stacking and in the process destroy the
  stacking of any non-window actors.

  Adding a "clutter restack" to the `MetaScreen` `restacked` signal
  seems keep the stacking in sync (without entering into infinite
  restack loops)
