The current volume level as a percentage is pretty useless really.
Surely we should be displaying the current volume in dB gain instead?

(yes, this was sarcastic.  Displaying the current volume level all the
time is just too much information.  The volume level is either just
right, or wrong.  If it is right the user doesn't care, if it is wrong
they should be able to change it easily.  Say, with a button they can
drag on to change the volume).
