Description

The z-index on the account dropdown menu causes the menu to get overlaped by primary MFE content in some cases, for example on the learner dashboard:

This issue could also be addressed (or similarly considered) in the related MFE repos. In the above image, the filters section has a z-index of 10 which seems like may be unnecessary.

Done means the account menu consistently appears above the primary MFE content in the affected case, with related MFE repositories considered as needed.
