I'm on activity A.
I want to go to activity B, and minimize A to Pip.

Is there a way to restrict Picture-in-picture to only work within an application and not persist when backgrounded?
Is there any way to allow PiP functionality only while the user is within an application?
Ideally, the user can launch PiP, but when they background the app the PiP would dismiss and background playback would continue.
