I’m suggesting that we change defaults.css

from:
Application
{
        padding: 0px;
        margin: 0px;
}

to:
Application
{
        padding: 0px;
        margin: 0px;
        position: relative;
}

I believe this will resolve this issue as the default would cascade down to all 
sub-elements. The default would be relative, but beads would be free to change 
that to whatever they want.

Of course, that would dictate that UIBase belongs in Basic and not Core… ;-)
