We should probably have a well-defined idea of what, if anything, we want extensions to know or do with pip prior to taking any feature requests.

Do you have a use case on why you want to interact with the pip window?

IIUC from the github issue, there is no way to distinguish this window from normal windows. We probably either want a type, make sure it is marked as a popup, or filter this out of any api.

The PiP overlay is not visible in the extension API, not in Firefox, neither in Chrome.
If you want to mute the PiP player, use tabs.update to set the muted property to false for the tab that serves as the source of the PiP overlay.
