IMHO, apps should not be able to change the system volume... They might have a slider inside which then adjusts their own sounds relative to the current system value, but in no way an app should be able to change another app's volume. Example: If I set the system's multimedia volume to 50%, those 50% should the maximum for all apps. Inside apps, they can have sliders if they want to, but setting them to 100% should give the current 50% of the system volume, setting them to 50% would then end up playing at 25% of what the system supports.
