The TACControlContainer class is positioned, and therefore creates its
own stacking context, therefore subsequent TACControlContainer
elements will always overlap previous ones unless these elements are
also given specific z-indices.

Ben's proposition about removing position:relative from the class is
as good suggestion as any.  From a functional point of view you only
need to specify a z-index > 0 at the time when the dropdown is to be
displayed, and remove it again when it is hidden.  Should work a
treat.
