We apologize for the instability of composr.app and appreciate your patience. We are working on the statistics addon and trying to find an optimal way to store and render data. Unfortunately, we have yet to find a solution that can handle the traffic (and therefore, tens of millions of statistical records) of composr.app. We're working hard on one.
I'm not convinced on the benefits of this yet, but I think it is worthy of discussion.
Overlays are technically complicated, and not really mobile-friendly, adding this could cause more clunkiness and confusion than it would help in speed and intuitiveness.
It's also a risk with themeing as site themers would need to ensure they don't break the standard overlay mechanism in their theme.
I imagine a user finding an edit form via the CMS zone, and finding an edit overlay, and getting kind of lost due to the 2 different contexts for the same thing. In my mind having 1 way of doing any thing is overall simpler.
