I'm never a fan of muting, since it puts your monsters to sleep and I don't like the way that looks, but I do like to turn the volume down to zero on some monsters -- that way they're still animated, but don't affect the music. So I've been wishing for a variation on your idea, the "Silence by Species" button. That way I could turn the sound off for all my Potbellies or Bellowfish at once.

But, this would be an incredibly minor addition -- probably much more work to implement than it merits. Even when I have 4 or 5 of a species I want to turn down, it's still only a minute's work to do so. Have to poke around a few times to make sure I've got them all.
