Thanks! I don't think it's a good idea to add the BLUETOOTH_CONNECT permission. Unfortunately unless there is a different way to tell media button events apart, I don't think this will be merged.

[NyanCatTW1]

Actually, it seems like only hardware media events go through the custom handler. Therefore, it should be safe to just not distinguish them.
I will make the changes in two or three days

Ok, thanks. So the setting description should be updated to explain that all hardware actions will be blocked (including bluetooth ones). Then it will be up to users to choose if they want to enable this setting or not.

I made a mess with the git history on the fork, but it should be ready for preview now
It now ignores all events that go through the MediaButtonEventHandler, which should hopefully be exactly what's needed to achieve the desired behavior

I pushed some improvements to make code shorter and a bit more performant. I tested with a bluetooth speaker and the hardware buttons get correctly blocked when the setting is on. Are the changes I pushed ok, in your opinion? Thanks!
