Gamerule doNaturalMusic to disable naturally playing songs

When I am making maps, I like choosing the musics that play with /playsound, however the game very frequently plays songs on top of the songs I started using commands. With this gamerule, the game would stop playing randomly natural songs, however would still play normal sound effects including jukeboxes and note blocks.

/gamerule doNaturalMusic <false|true> (default set to true)

We could also extend this to ambience sounds like in caves:

/gamerule doNaturalAmbienceSounds <false|true> (default set to true)

    Try muting music in the sound options and using "master" for the /playsound source.

    I know that is possible, but it is not a very elegant solution. I believe the gamerule would be pretty useful nonetheless.

    You already can do that with the sound options.

    Like I said in my other comment, I am aware of that, however that solution is not very elegant and is client based. Imagine having to turn off music every time you get to a server that has custom note block music? Or what if you use music sounds and put them to play on the music source, players with it off won't hear it. Also, I like natural musics, I don't want to accidentaly leave it off after turning it off for hearing a custom music or testing some other thing when I join another server or a new singleplayer world.
