 * stacking order correctly with VWindow objects.

 * To use this correctly, use {@link GWT#create(Class)} to create the
 * {@link Overlay} superclass and the default widgetset will replace it with
 * this. The widget will not be dependent on this Vaadin specific widget and can
 * be used in a pure GWT environment.
 *
 * @deprecated as this is specifically for Vaadin only, it should not be used
 *             directly.
