Type of Enhancement

Web Interface/Frontend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

It would be nice if I can promote audio playback on the web page from a bar at the bottom of the web page to it's own standalone browser window.

Why would this be helpful?

There have been times where, though accident, I stopped the playback of the audiobook by either closing the browser or navigating to another page. By being able to launch into a standalone window, this will allow playback to continue.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

Should look similar to the screenshots by Audible provided below.

Audiobookshelf Server Version

v2.16.2

Current Implementation (Screenshot)

You can just install the website as app inside chrome and start it as a "windows" app.
