**Instead, one could add a hook method to MIDI drivers that let's them add a few controls of their own to the options dialog. This is probably a lot easier to implement, though not quite as "clean"...

* Some of our engines support the speech_mute / sfx_mute / music_mute options, but most don't. Almost all support the corresponding FOO_volume config keys. All engines use Mixer::setVolumeForSoundType to push those through to the mixer. I am wondering: Maybe it would make sense to remove Mixer::setVolumeForSoundType, and instead leave it up to the mixer to query the ConfigManager for the corresponding FOO_volume/_mute values? That way we'd ensure 100% identical behavior in all engines and actually simplify the code a bit... ? Not sure if this would work smoothly, it needs to be investigated.

* Add a "SeekableAudioStream" class, which would allow seeking in an audiostream: Forward / backward; offset is specified in milliseconds. Then, convert at least the MP3/FLAC/Vorbis audiostream classes to subclass that, and also adapt the corresponding factory functions. Converting more would obviously be nice, too. The existing DigitalTrackInfo subclasses already contain seeking code which could be used as a starting point.
* Once SeekableAudioStream has been implemented, this can be used to greatly simplify the DigitalTrackInfo subclasses (like MP3TrackInfo) which are used by the Audio CD manager. In fact, it might then be possible to completely get rid of these special subclasses.
