[mythtv-users] Why the PIP Limitation?

I have been playing around with making a camera to watch my new daughter 
and linking it to MythTV.  The master plan was that I could then have it 
up in a PIP while I watched whatever I was normally watching.  I know it 
isn't really all that practical, but it is something neat to mess with.

ANYWAY...

I know PIP can be used when you are watching LiveTV, but why can't you 
use it when you have a recorded program up?  Watching LiveTV isn't 
really supposed to be that different than watching a Recorded Program, 
so why is that option not in the menu?  Is there a technical reason or 
just a "its never been done" kinda thing?
