Unable to click (edited) link due to below message's hover menu

[anoadragon453]

Description

Small CSS bug. If a message is highlighted (such that it's little hover menu appears), the message above is a certain length and you try to click the (edited) link on the above menu, you won't be able to.

This is (I believe) due to the hover menu extending out a bit invisibly and blocking mouse events from getting to below objects.

See here that my mouse isn't showing that I can click something, and indeed clicking here does nothing.

If the below message isn't highlighted and the menu isn't showing then there isn't any problem showing edit history.

Steps to reproduce

• Send a suitably long message (msg1), such as bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb (this works for me with the user directory open).
• Edit it in some way (you want the (edited) bit near but not under the hover over menu.
• Send another message (msg2)
• Highlight msg2 and try to view the message history of msg1 without unhighlighting msg2.
