I wish they'd made CEC a little more powerful. I like that I can control my AV receiver's volume with the TV remote, but I don't like that I can't see what the volume is actually set to on the TV. Even if I had a receiver that could overlay onto 4K video, that wouldn't help for the cases where I'm feeding audio back from the TV to the receiver.

It's ""fun"", because there is definitely a CEC command for TV to know AVR's current volume.
But I can't blame TV manufacturer for not implementing it: When sending vol+/vol- commands, you're already stretching the CEC bus pretty thin, you can't afford to spam the bus more with more commands...
