First of all I LOVE this feature. I did not know I needed it. However, it'd be nice to add certain domains or pages to an exclusion list. Some websites (Partiful was the first I encountered) loop videos as a background or hero image, and these types of videos are unwanted. I can also see a use case for someone who uses YouTube for music, and so on.

it's necessary cause of many website using different video considerations.

when if it's Youtube kind 'single video purpose website', it working as intended fine.

but if website using 'multiful video play as much compressed version of animation GIF' kind purpose, this Auto PIP in background function just broken easily in every tab change or open.

cause firefox can't distinguish the 'this video is GIF purpose or Video purpose'.
unless some janky AI watchdog adoptions

was simmilar issue was happen with RTX Video(upscaling and HDR) support on firefox.

but at least this issue doesn't make firefox hang or system crash.

hope either whitelist or blacklist methods, this function need to filtered and allowed by user.

It would also be useful to have a way to close the PIP and have the video continue playing. Right now the options are to either close the PIP and thus pause the video (and any audio), or return to the tab to watch the video.
