Background: We know floating GUI are possible, that's HUDs. Menus are just floating HUDs with control taken away from he character. What we don't know is if we can float a GUI in XYZ space and allow the player to look away or regain control.

There is some indication we can with overlays and markers being placed in the world, but this requires further investigation.

Update: I've seen working ATM's and the floating directional wayfinding tags. Both fit the bill. So this is possible.
