Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I frequently change playback speed between 2x and 1.7x (Sonos gets a little choppy at 2x). Not having a shortcut means more UI interactions and more changes in playback speed along the way. It also means I can't set the speed directly from carplay.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like there to be a shortcut to directly set the playback speed to 1.7x (either replacing 3x or in addition to it)

Describe alternatives you've considered

Letting users customize their playback speed shortcuts. But seems like probably overkill?

Additional context

I don't have a direct data-driven argument to support, but I do have an implicit one. Audible provides a direct shortcut for 1.7x playback speed. Given their size, I suspect they've done UX research into these options (and possibly even run A/B experiments).
