title: Catching all click events, obscuring other contained elements
body: <pre><code>&lt;app-drawer-layout fullbleed&gt;
  
      &lt;!-- Drawer content --&gt;
      &lt;app-drawer swipe-open&gt;I have the following code:
  
        &lt;iron-selector selected="[[page]]" class="drawer-list" role="navigation" attr-for-selected="name" id="menu-main" on-iron-select="_selectionEvent" &gt;
  
          &lt;!-- First link. With overlapping DIV --&gt;
          &lt;a style="position: relative" name="view1" href="/page/view1"&gt;
            &lt;div drawer-toggle style="position: absolute;top:0;bottom:0;left:0;right:0"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
            &lt;iron-icon icon="home"&gt;&lt;/iron-icon&gt;
            &lt;span&gt;View One&lt;/span&gt;
          &lt;/a&gt;
  
          &lt;!-- Second link. Drawer only goes away when the click is on the span --&gt;
          &lt;a name="view2" href="/page/view2"&gt;
            &lt;iron-icon icon="question-answer"&gt;&lt;/iron-icon&gt;
            &lt;span drawer-toggle &gt;View Two&lt;/span&gt;
          &lt;/a&gt;
  
          &lt;!-- Third link. Works but it's a lot of typing... --&gt;
          &lt;a drawer-toggle name="view3" href="/page/view3"&gt;
            &lt;iron-icon drawer-toggle icon="work"&gt;&lt;/iron-icon&gt;
            &lt;span drawer-toggle&gt;View Three&lt;/span&gt;
          &lt;/a&gt;
        &lt;/iron-selector&gt;
        ...

  <p>It's for a polymer element, but that's besides the point of this question. What is important is that iron-selector listens to clicks, and that when a click is done on an element with the <code>drawer-toggle</code> attribute, app-drawer-layout retracts the drawer (which is what I want).</p>
  
  <p>The problem in <code>view2</code> is that the drawer will only ever retract when you click <em>exactly</em> on the writing in the span. <code>view3</code> is a lot of typing, but that also works.
  <code>view1</code> fixes the problem by creating a <code>div</code> that will overlap all of the others. So, just THAT needs to set <code>drawer-toggle</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Now... is that horrible? Will it have side effects I cannot predict? Is there a nice alternative?</p>
