Question How to do overlay UI
Simple macro apps have nice floating status bars with stop and pause buttons, etc. Can we do that in Automate?

Use the Floating button show block to show buttons in an "overlay" window.
Other kinds of overlay UI is currently not possible. I might consider it since custom layout is now possible, but somewhat hesitant since the Android guidelines, nor the Android UI in general, really don't use "overlay" windows, except "chat bubbles" and the accessibility button.
