Hi Silvia Sorry for the delay -- I am just working through email from vacation. > Are there any plans to change the API to allow any element to go PIP? We're working on a newer version of PiP that allows arbitrary web content. The explainer <https://github.com/steimelchrome/document-pip-explainer/blob/main/explainer.md> goes into a bit more detail, but TL;DR: the site may open a PiP window that has its own document, and can add / move elements to it as it sees fit. Please give it a read and let us know what you think!
