I support this, as odd as it is. There’s times when you’re needing something drawn but can easily reuse an html element from elsewhere. Previously you’d have to render that to a bitmap offscreen and then copy that to a full screen quad or draw it on the canvas. Up until recently, even if you tried to z-index elements with position absolute it would be visually overwritten by the canvas (I think this is mostly fixed though).

I don’t know if this is the best solution but it’s better than previous hacks. IF you need to go that route. Basically html2canvas.
