another regression, in google image search results (click on an image from the results list/table) the image used to be on top of the placeholder, now it's below, obscured by it.
The zorder change may be intentional but in this case the old way was definitely better. Can it be made smarter or optional?

Not always, so it would be a pretty ugly hack.

In this case maybe, but definitely not.
The change (relocating the placeholder on top if its central part is obscured by something else) has been made because Youtube started placing its custom placeholders for HTML 5 videos over the video element, and therefore of the placeholder, obscuring it completely.
While you can easily remove the placeholder (shift+click) and anyway see through it if it's on top, if it's on bottom you're just left with broken content and no obvious way to unlock it (until you look at the Blocked Objects submenu, but it's not obvious for most people).
