That makes sense. OTOH overlays that have the same priority are ordered
by size, so that a small overlay such as the vcursor one takes
precedence over most other overlays of the same priority.
Which makes me wonder: why other overlay have you bumped into which has
either higher priority than nil, or nil priority but is not larger than vcursor.
