show()/hide() interact in a bizarre way when embeds and objects are nearby

Description

To reproduce:

Take a video, e.g.:

http://www.thedailyshow.com/video/index.jhtml?videoId=221517&title=jim-cramer-unedited-interview

Insert it into your page as an embed (the video contains the needed HTML).

Immediately above it, add something such as:

<div class="showme">
  <div class="absarea">foo</div>
</div>

where:

  • showme will show/hide the absarea when hovered
  • absarea is absolutely positioned and large enough to intersect with the video

observed behavior:

absarea goes underneath the video when your mouse is in located where the two intersect

expected behavior:

absearea remains over the video at all times

possible workaround:

to hide the video if they intersect.

Towards the bottom of the page, hover the area that goes:

Buzz Up, Digg, etc.
