They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so please see the attached images. In short I am wondering whether it is possible to achieve the layout shown in desired-layout.png. Currently it would appear that Omega does not allow for vertically overlapping Zones (see current-layout.png). Is this correct or am I missing something due to my inexperience with Omega?

Does anyone have any suggestions on what might be the best way of achieving the desired result?

Begun - did you ever resolve this? I'm researching this issue right now for a site I'm working on.

I have similar requirements, and the following is my work-in-progress. Not sure if it is the correct / best solution because I am still working on the site.

In "yourtheme-alpha-default-normal.css"

section#section-content { position: relative }

/* "left: 0; right: 0" is a trick to center an absolutely positioned div */
#zone-content { position: absolute; left:0; right: 0; top: -200px; z-index: 9999 } /* or target one of the regions depending on your needs */
