Screenshot showing the System tray widget popup being covered over

In the new Edit mode, the "Pannel settings" window is drawn over the little popup windows of widgets placed on the panel, preventing access to those popups. This means that the settings and remove buttons for the default placement of the System tray, Digital clock and Peek at desktop widgets are inaccessible.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right click the panel on a default Plasma 6.1.3 installation
2. Click "Show Panel Configuration"
3. Hover mouse over the System tray

OBSERVED RESULT
The popup with the name of the widget, it's settings and a remove button is almost completely covered by the Panel settings (see screenshot)

EXPECTED RESULT
The popup is drawn over the panel settings / the panel settings move out of the way / the panel settings close to make way
