macromedia players flash : missing Flash Player SOUND volume option!

I found difficult to believe, that even with the latest free Flash Player 7
is still NOT POSSIBLE set into settings VOLUME of SOUND for all swf files,
or to be possible to disable sound at all (volume 0 do the trick too =;-)
It nicely show and can access both my microphones and webcam, but master
sound volume is not there? WTF?!?

Such major flaw should be addressed immediately. Why? Because most users
have volume at pretty high level to they should not need to fiddle with
it much - just to change the volume into computer, using volume slider
in application, rather that using the volume knob on amplifier, since the
cheap ones die soon and who want to fiddle with volume just to get not too
loud Flash anyway? (not to mention quiet sound of DVDs with AC3/DTS sound)

So, then all the Flash sounds go extremely loud, witch is ANNOYING like hell!

And perhaps adding possibility of showing URL of the currently used swf file
should not hurt as well, when one right-click on it into the infos
menu??? =:-))) This is important to detect from where the damn advert or
such thing get loaded and block the server into hosts file =:-)
Or just for information.
Its quite bad must always dig into source code for the page and its
especially hard, when the damn thing is there as i-frame =:-(

Please, Flash Player developers, address at least the sound issue
immediately. Thank you very much!

Anyone can tell me, if Macromedia is planing to finally implement the volume option...?
