[Bug 1387691] Re: Media Player should not be visible in the app scope and launcher

 

Where is the rationale for this?

Can we please have bugs filed where they state a problem, and not a
description of a task the reporter expects developers to do? And if the
problem is related to design, please provide the appropriate links to
rationale of why the design is changed, so that the developers can
understand things better.

Bug description:
  The mediaplayer is an 'auxiliary app' in the current design approach.
  That means that its purpouse it playback media launched by other apps
  (e.g Messaging) or scopes (e.g. Videos). It should not be launched
  from the App scopes.

  However, the 'Update' section System Settings should still display it
  when an update to mediaplayer is available.

  Current behaviour
  - Mediaplayer app displayed in App Scope, Launcher and Settings

  Desired behaviour
  - Mediaplayer app not displayed in App Scope or Launcher
  - Mediaplayer displayed in Settings > Update
