Hi,

I'm going to add a component in order to have someone from the development team look over this suggestion. If is not the correct component please feel free to change it to an appropriate one.

Thanks for the report.

Concerning PiP - after Bug 1811318, we now have a new icon on the urlbar to enable PiP for a video on the page. There's additionally the PiP keyboard shortcut (Command + Shift + Option + ] for macOS) as an alternative.

It would be interesting if we had a kebab menu or similar that shows the context menu video options (ex. play, mute, speed, hide controls, etc.) and therefore removes the need to right click just to see them. Going to rename the ticket to relate to the native video player controls.

Didn't mean to change components... Reverting the change, sorry!
