This integration is meant to come through the indicators, as far as I can tell, same as we have on the desktop:

I use my phone to play music on random while I'm driving. This works great except when I want to advance or pause the song, where I have to go through the greeter first to access the player. This can either take my attention away from driving or I need to wait until the next stop light to advance the song. This is less of a concern when the greeter can just be swiped with one gesture, but is a big concern if you enable the passcode lock where you have to add the passcode to access the player. If the music is playing, the greeter should allow rudimentary manipulation of the music, eg, pause/play and forward/back. Other platforms seem to allow for this (eg android).
