"How is clicking on rythmbox from unity "harder" and requires a special
area in the taskbar ... whereas opening up the settings and waiting for
it is "easier""

My first reply wasn't as clear as it could have been. Although I think
you miss the point of the rhytmbox shortcuts it is as you say not that
usefull for opening the application but IS very useful for switching
songs without having to switch from your current focused application,
this workflow is likely to happen many times in one user session where
as changing output is a once off thing.

I very much object to having settings like this added to the applet as
they will make the applet crowded and are of no use to the majority of
users. Also gnome-settings provides a simple centralized location for
all settings I don't think its a good idea to start moving settings to
other locations on the desktop.

Although you don't seem to realise it your actual problem seems to be two other 
things.
1. the gnome settings window is slow to load on your system (on my desktop pc 
its instant)
2. there's no auto detection for output.

based on your comments it seems likely that if gnome-settings window
loaded quicker for you there would be no need to add this to the applet.
