Not sure if possible, but also agree this would be rad.

I can confirm that my iPhone does have bluetooth interfaces for controls and they execute over dfeet.

I can see that we have the following methods:

Play, Pause, Next, Previous, Rewind, FastForward

as well as a "Track" property that is "Dict of {String, Variant}" and a "Status" property and some other things that are probably not terribly useful to us.

Can confirm Android exposes the same info. Could get album art via Last.fm if needed.

There should be a way to disable exposing the laptop as a bluetooth speaker. I don't want to use my laptop as a bluetooth speaker all the time (yes, I can lower the volume of the created input device, but that still makes my android device play via bluetooth)
