Unable to switch tabs via keyboard shortcut after Picture-in-Picture is started via keyboard shortcut.

When I start PiP on Youtube via the keyboard shortcut 'command+option+shift+]', the miniplayer becomes focused, such that pressing 'control+tab' only cycles through options in the miniplayer, rather than switching tabs. It seems to me that the fix would be to force the focus back to the main window either automatically, or if control is held while pressing tab.

You will have to set focus back to the main browser window if you want to act on it, The PiP window is a standalone Firefox window, so you would have to use "Command + ~" to cycle through those Firefox windows.
