Notifications shouldn't unlock media controls

Currently, when one receives a notification while the screen is off, the display turns on and the notification is briefly displayed on the "lock screen" (I think that's how it's called); this screen also contains the media control keys, if a compatible media player is open. These buttons are active also from the lock screen, and it is easy to press them by mistake, for instance if I receive a notification while the phone is in my pocket (a variant of pocket dialing / butt dialing).

I think that these buttons should be locked or invisible when the display turns on.

It's already happened to me twice that death metal suddenly started playing at full volume while I was in a silent room. :(

At its bottom there are the media control keys, if a compatible media player is open. These buttons are active fully functional also from the lock screen, and it is easy to press them by mistake, for instance if I receive a notification while the phone is in my pocket (a variant of pocket dialing / butt dialing).

I think that Feature request: these buttons should be locked or made invisible when the display turns on.on for a notification.

It's already happened to me twice that my death metal playlist suddenly started playing at full volume while I was in a silent quiet room. :(
