The Overlay Manager is an ImageJ2 feature and is very likely to change
substantially in future, mostly due to changes in how we will represent
and handle selections/ROIs. My guess is, that the Overlay Manager was/is
supposed to supersede the ROI Manger in ImageJ2. Currently, the best
place to get "documentation" would be the source code ([1] and [2]).

That's an issue that has been recently introduced. I have filed a pull
request [3] for the imagej-ui-swing component.

Best,
Stefan
