Yeah, it's just asking for trouble and seems to defeat the point of having the LED in the first place - aside from the general issues with it being software controlled it'll require specific userspace support to set it. Users won't be able to trust that the LED state accurately reflects if they're muted or not. Your proposal is more what I'd expect here, I'm not sure we can do much better with something software controllable.
