I have a healthy aloe plant whose stalk is getting so long that it’s beginning to bend over. What’s the best solution here? To repot in a larger pot so I can plant it lower? Or should I just stake it? Should I cut the stalk down a bit (knowing that it will take some time for the roots to return)?

It really looks like it's time to repot it. Little bigger pot, and pot it deeper. Don't cut the stalk it most likely will not re-root itself, it'll just die!
