On step 5, I expect that the error is shown on top of any other modals, popups, or other items so I can see what the error says. Although the error can be dismissed, I can't see what kind of error I encountered.
An error is displayed, but it is behind the guided tour popup

Thanks for logging this bug, Melissa.
Thanks for sharing. That's a tricky one. Pinging @taggon again for any thoughts of how we could fix this?
Does it make sense to temporarily hide all guided tour tips when we detect an error notification (regardless of where we are in WordPress.com) or should we target this one specifically, that is, when the media library wants to display an error?
I'm not yet sure off the top of my head how, but we could retrigger the tip once the user has dismissed the error notification. Might have to store something in state to track it all.
Ideally, it would be great to solve this at a system level but I worry how big a task that is. Maybe dealing with it in this one-off case is the better approach?

Sounds like a good approach.
