Click-through option on macOS

On macOS, windows normally have to be in the foreground to receive a click. Some apps override this by supporting “click-through,” where the first click both activates the window and performs the action under the cursor.

Example: when I’m watching a video in Brave but another app is currently active, a single click on the video (while Brave is still in the background) would immediately play/pause instead of just bringing the window to the front.

Having a toggle in Settings for “Enable click-through on macOS” would let users choose the interaction style they prefer.

Thanks!
