      Hey Opera team,
      I love having a built-in media player in the browser, but the current behavior makes it a bit frustrating to use long-term. Every time I restart Opera, I have to go through a whole process just to get it back on the toolbar:

      • Open the media player from the sidebar
      • Start playback
      • Close the player window
      • Hover over the floating player
      • Click on options
      • Select "Pin to toolbar" – again

      That’s quite a few unnecessary steps for something that could be persistent. It would be much more user-friendly if there were an option to permanently pin the media player to the toolbar, keeping it available across browser sessions with the same functionality as the sidebar icon.

      Would love to see this improvement—it would make the experience much smoother! Any chance this could be considered?

      Cheers,
      Mr Teatime
