I have a few sliders where I wanted text and a link that stays static above the images and text that changes. In the 1.6 it seems the update added this which forces anything within the container that the slider is in (#brxe-uawown) to be position:relative. The elements are after the slider, so they should get a shot at showing above it if we prefer that.
#brxe-uawown > * {
position: relative
}
Of course it can be fixed with a bunch of !important declarations, but that’s not a great idea.
