Amazing that this has been working for so long without it ever breaking in newer OS versions (I think)

fascinating :) This suggests that whoever is providing PIPViewControllerDelegate has a pretty defensible position, isolated from the substantial changes in window management and graphics frameworks since 2015 (when this app was born, according to git log).

The biggest difference in the api surface seems to be we cannot distinguish between the return button and the close button.

The upside is I think all the goofy layer moving code can be removed. Pros and cons, but we've been talking about simplifying implementation as a theme going forward, so the minor experience change is probably worth it.

Seems we spoke too soon, the PIP button in the player UI cannot exit PIP! Also, the private API cannot replace a PiP video that is playing from another application, while the public API can!
