Description

I wonder if it would be possible to activate picture-in-picture with a keyboard shortcut, the standard way of doing it on chrome is to right click a video two consecutive times and then in the menu select "Picture in picture.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by locating Vimium’s existing keyboard-shortcut handling and the browser integration for video actions, then check how Chrome exposes Picture-in-Picture; done means a keyboard shortcut activates Picture-in-Picture for a video without the two-context-menu sequence.
