There should be a setting to show this button longer than 5 seconds. Or at least a permanent hotkey to jump to the last known location.
I often continue watching media from a network source, where a password is prompted. Even during that password prompt, the 5 second timer starts. If I don't type my password fast enough, I don't get to click the button, and there is no way to access that feature after those 5 seconds. The function for Alt+C also disappears.
The only existing workaround is setting the "Continue playback"-setting to "Always" instead of "Ask", which I don't prefer.
