Option to Activate or Deactivate Automatic Video Stopping When Scrolling

We propose a feature that gives educators the option to choose whether videos (in the Interactive Book module) should automatically stop playing when a user scrolls down the page. This feature would cater to different use cases: activating it ensures learners focus on the content in view, while deactivating it allows videos to continue playing in the background as users explore other parts of the page.
This customizable option would provide greater flexibility for course creators.
We’re prepared to fund and implement this feature.

Hi there, It looks like this
Hi there, It looks like this feature have been implemented? When I check the Interactive Video example page, I do see the player pausing when scrolling down. Now I have the opposite request: How do we let it play without pausing on scroll?
Thank you
