Sorry, what do you mean by 'top'?
We used to say "if you want to control the z-index of one of your markers,
you must set the z-index of all of your markers". However that's tedious
when you just want to bring a marker to the front. We will soon add a robust
way to bring a marker to the front.

No, as I described in my last email, users who want to control the z-indices
of all their markers would be unhappy if we modified them. Adding is
undesirable in this case.

In your example you would still need to know the z-index of our markers. If
you wanted to bring a marker to the front, by how much would you increase
its z-index? Why should that be a function of the marker's height?
