[Suggestion]An option to change background music from the sidebar

Currently, the base Opera GX browser and the mods have such good music for the background, however, sometimes I find that the much softer tone of "Evolve" fits the situation much better than another modded track I may have installed.
I can't be the only one here who's had a moment like that. You're winding down, listening to and/or watching a video in the background, and the audio goes quiet for a small moment. Maybe the streamer you were watching goes quiet for a few seconds, or maybe the lofi stream you're listening to is between transitioning from one song to another... and bang, suddenly a less-than-expected music track you had set your settings to via a mod pops in out of nowhere. Sure, it's good audio regardless, but it probably didn't match the overall vibe you were trying to settle in with.

So here I am clicking and then right-clicking the "Mute Music" button to see if it would do anything different than just muting the music (duh). Giving up on that, I started to navigate through the settings, thinking to manually swap the music tracks... and then it hit me.

"It'd be a lot smoother if I could just change which music is playing from within the sidebar itself. Maybe there's a section on the browser I can use to suggest that change?"

So here's my proposal, much like the 'Shaders' button, what if clicking the 'Mute Music' button instead opened a side-panel where you could either quickly mute the music, or select a different track based on what mods you have installed?
