What do you think about setting the playback volume of plugins proportional to the visible area of the plugins?
This would create a nice fading effect when scrolling plugins in and out of the viewport.
It might not be easy to control the volume of individual plugins, though ...

Plugins are sometimes used for audio only players. These could have only audio controls, or be invisible, using HTML controls.
I do not immediately see how to avoid breaking this use case.

Thanks for responding :)
This is a good point, and I'm not sure how this could be handled, either.
Maybe the volume adaption could only be applied to visible plugins with an area greater than zero? :)
