[Discover] Implement mechanism for managing flyouts #194239

Open davismcphee opened 1 month ago

davismcphee commented 1 month ago

Discover uses several flyouts (e.g. doc viewer, ES|QL help, Lens editor), and they can overlap if not properly managed, for example when two push flyouts are opened at once:

We implemented a quick fix to address this problem in #193865, but we should figure out a more robust way to manage flyouts longer term, which can also be used by Discover extensions that show flyouts (e.g. cell renderer with a link that opens a flyout). One idea would be to create something like a central "flyout manager" that's responsible for ensuring only one flyout is opened at once in Discover.
