Feature Request: PiP Scrub, volume, and previous/next controls

[Chaseos]

SHORT Table	(Summary)
Problem	I would like to be able to control the video while not on the browser tab. It frustrates me when I have to stop what I'm doing and return to the browser to go back a few seconds or go to the next video.
Solution	Adding scrubbing volume, and previous / next controls would allow me to do that.
Scope	Would benefit anyone who uses PiP. I downloaded this extension only for PiP.

hi & thanks! @Chaseos

context:

• our shortcuts allowing single keys are only for the active tab

  • we can allow global ones too and we can use chrome://extensions/shortcuts too #1565
    • (both of which will work without PiP)

• we have a feature mixer (currently hidden behind the "⋮"), where you can control the volume of videos playing in the background.

  • chrome added similar some years ago in the top right called "control your music, videos and more"
    • we can check the chrome PiP API more to see if we can add short cuts for it or if we require pull request to the browser/s

I think the best options here (in my opinion) would be:

• The controls get overlayed on the video when hovering, like the site does
• The controls are in a separate area, below the PiP video
• The controls are shown when you click the extension button at the top

PIP is internal Chrome implementation. Afaik cant overlay anything on PIP, its a magic non existent window.

• The controls are in a separate area, below the PiP video

afaik cant glue anything to magic PIP window either.

• The controls are shown when you click the extension button at the top

those would not work outside of YT tabs, only chrome://extensions/shortcuts work globally
