Dear Andreas,
thank for your answer.
Currently, my workaround is hiding overlapping labels with the label toolbar.
However, it is not easy to restore hidden labels (for non-professional GIS
users), especially for layers without symbology like house numbers.
I submitted a possible solution where area-like annotations could act as
blocking label obstacles: https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues/60872

Dear Simon,
I am not 100% sure, but to the best of my knowledge, labels are always rendered
on top of everything else.
It would require an architectural change in QGIS in order to allow a change in
rendering order of labels.
I agree that in some cases it would be nice being able to render other objects
on top of labels.
Sorry that I don't have a better response,
Andreas

Hi list,
how can I draw annotations over labels of a vector layer?
Apparently the z-index of labels is independent of the z-index of annotations.
I would like to avoid using the manual "Hide label" action from the label
toolbar.
