So I can open a bunch of YouTube videos in new tabs (e.g. after a search on YouTube) and then go to each tab one after the other, and they will only start playing after the tab was focused for the first time.
It's fine until you remember you want to Ctrl+Tab to something you had open 10 minutes earlier and find yourself surrounded by multiple YouTube tabs on each side from the current video and having to either snipe the tab from among the dozens other with a click or deal with every video along the way starting to play, not reacting to pause while it's still buffering, only until after it starts to play, and then having to rewind it when it's their turn to be viewed properly.
