A suggestion to Google about the missing options in Android Lollipop.

These are suggestions for Android Lollipop.
I have designed a mock-up to represent what many Android users who use Lollipop want to see in future releases. I realize there could be many other suggestions that should be discussed, but no matter how bring up these issues, they simply get ignored.

As naive as it may look, I believe these important features must be included in Lollipop. Other Android users who don't like these suggestions should not be forced to use them, as I want these changes to be provided as a choice to the users.

The two suggestions are:
1. Provide "ringer volume" toggles in the quick settings that were present in the previous Android versions.
2. Provide an option to use the volume keys to ONLY control media audio. This includes adjusting the media audio anywhere on screen.
(I realize this option is already available in CyanogenMod 11 and 10, but not 12).
