I mostly ignore it.
But it can be handy while listening to an audio book, or any streamed audio.
I gather it could also be useful during a phone call, but I have not tried it.

Granted, it is mostly a visual thing I guess, but it is not useless, and is 
easily ignored.

No. You could contact Apple and ask for that option, but I doubt it is ever

It is now a basic feature.
