Thanks for explaining, and fair enough... I've got a similar set up at home but I can't think why I'd use my phone instead of my home theatre.
We are talking, however, about relatively advanced stuff... I am not sure this use case applies to most people.

I do agree with you that it'd be a nice to have, on the understanding that I won't be sacrificing 25-40% of my battery life to have that option.
