Android and iOS combined have about 96% market share, and neither of
them work the way you describe. That doesn't necessarily mean either of
them have the ideal design. But it does mean you have to give a lot more
explanation before you use the word "should" so much.

It's true that with the current UI you can't change the ringtone volume
while media is playing. But there's still no explanation here of why
that would actually be a problem, or why it follows that the best
possible solution to the problem would be for the sound indicator to
only indicate ringtone volume. Did you consider any other possible
solutions?

Title:
  Sound indicator should only indicate ringtone volume

Status in Canonical System Image:
  New
Status in Ubuntu UX:
  Incomplete
Status in indicator-sound package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  On the phone, the volume indicator follows the current active stream
  volume (music, alarm etc.) to show and control via slider and/or
  volume buttons.

  The indicator icon and slider should only ever follow the ringtone
  volume. I'm not sure whether volume buttons should work for alarms.

  This is somewhat related to bug #1291458.
