--- Comment #2 from Nate Graham <[email protected]> ---
As you mentioned, status icons are meant to show status, so the current icons
are objectively correct as status icons.

In the video players and websites, the user sees a pause button when the video
is playing because the button is a clickable action button; you left-click on
it and it pauses the video. So the icon and text are telling you what *will*
happen when the button is pressed.

In the Media Player widget--which is where people complain about this--the
icons are indeed being used as status icons and not action buttons; you can't
left-click on them to play and pause the video or audio. As such, they're being
used correctly and no change is needed.
