Please add an option for PIP So we can add things like a PIP with the options to show an IP camera feed when someone touches the doorbell at our front door. Or, view one channel in the TV guide and ...

It may or may not be doable as a software-only solution. My guess is that they're already dealing with a limited power and hardware budget, and adding the decoding of a second data stream plus the combining of outputs may be more than they can handle in existing products. Plus they might need a dedicated button on the remote to make switching between sources quick and easy; I really don't want to have to pile more stuff into the * button's functionality.
From a marketing standpoint, this would be a major new feature and a huge selling point for new hardware. I've gone through multiple generations of Roku hardware - each adding some new capability and/or performance - so I don't imagine this would be any different.
As for compensation, I'd feel more than rewarded if something we post gets picked up as a feature in some future product. After all, the reason we're posting ideas is because we want to see them in our living room!
Very well said. Not much to add to that. Great if they could implement that next with the cameras.
PiP would be nice.
