Description
Paper component (elevation=1) accepts clicks from UI elements underneath. I have the following code:
<Popper>
<Paper>
<ClickAwayListener>
// some stuff here
</ClickAwayListener>
</Paper>
</Popper>
Any elements (buttons, checkboxes, etc) that sit below the popper / paper component above, accept click events. The component should block any click events from flowing to components underneath it.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the behavior with the Popper, Paper, and ClickAwayListener structure described in the issue using Material-UI v4.9.9, React 16.8.0, and Chrome. Trace how clicks on elements beneath the overlay are handled; done means buttons and checkboxes underneath no longer receive clicks through the Paper overlay.
