...which has always been ridiculous. As you say: they are
functionality. Why should they be under "Settings", you don't put
functionality in "Settings", no one does that.

Nope. Install anything that uses "Extras" and the menu shows up.
I'm not dogmatic about "Extras", _I_ would do a player features menu
where all this could live. Along with Sync, Power, Maybe Volume. But
that's just me.
Are these also "Settings" in your oppinion? What is different then?

I just checked. None of this under "Settings" on my iPhone. You can't
sync, Shuffle and Repeat is on NowPlaying, Power has a button, Alarms
have their own App.
