behind
rpic extension, inspired by Pikchr. behind paints the current object
under an already-drawn one — highlights, backgrounds, halos — without
reordering anything semantically.

- Only backend paint order changes. Evaluation order, labels, anchors,
ordinals (
last box,2nd box), SVG ids (s0,s1) and animation targets all keep source order. - Layers cascade: an object drawn
behindsomething that is itselfbehindanother lands below both. - Without
behind, rpic keeps the classic natural order — later objects paint over earlier ones:
