[beta 11] elements inside app.html now appear inside 'app-root'

I have an app.html page that looks like this:

<ion-nav #maincontent id="nav" [root]="root"></ion-nav>
<environment-label></environment-label>

the environment-label tag is a little component that overlays some developer details on top of the app at all times. But now, this component shows up in a div with the class app-root. The problem is app-root is not positioned on top of others, so it defeats my use case.

What’s the best way to add my component above the other elements now?
