Take issue with Remain coming to the fore (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

standpoint

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'take' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'issue with remain coming to the fore' is the wordplay.
'issue with' becomes 'point' (I am not sure about the 'with' bit.).
'remain' becomes 'stand' (standing is a kind of remaining).
'coming to the fore' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'point' put after 'stand' is 'STANDPOINT'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for standpoint that I've seen before include "view" , "Attitude towards a particular issue" , "Take" , "Opinion" .)
