Considering Ubuntu (Touch) currently does not work with the "media control buttons" on some (all?) bluetooth headsets/headphones, this should be fast-tracked... It could serve as an interim solution and even if you look beyond that, it's a great suggestion (particularly for those using wired headsets/headphones).

This allows users to control their music without having to take the device out of their pocket, turn its screen on, unlock it, go to the music app and press "Next". As of now, when I long press the volume button, it rapidly increases the volume, which is not very nice to my ears ;-) Is it possible to control the music app this way on Ubuntu phone?
