Display order for skylight

Why is there no display order option for skylight? (For windows it is...) Sometimes Archicad does really weird things...

Windows and doors don't either.

It is because they belong to the wall they are hosted in.

Skylights belong to the roof they are hosted in and have no display order of their own.

Opening elements also can not have their Display order set as they belong to the element they cut and are pinned to (if they cut multiple elements).
