Add Ambient Sound boxes to Linden Stilt Home packages

I have a Bellissaria stilt home, and love the ambient sounds around me outside of my parcel. However, I have limited my sounds to my own parcel to be mindful of any neighbors, and thus, I am now missing out on all of the ambiance of the waves and tropical birds or bugs around me.
A couple of the boxes used for the ambient sounds being added to the Linden Home customization package would be much appreciated! They don't have to be modify, and the sound options provided could be limited - but just a small something so we could enjoy the atmosphere without having to toggle allowing sounds outside of the parcel on / off all the time.

Thank you Ziel.
It is an interesting proposal and we do see where there would be a benefit. If we did do this however, we couldn't rightfully limit it to just one theme's soundscape. Which naturally makes the proposed task much larger. It is something we are not completely opposed to though if there is enough interest and we have time.

Abnor Mole I don't have or experience the other home regions so I kept my suggestion to what I have experience with - If the others also have soundscapes then it would make sense to expand to those, and we all know it would take time. Quadrapop's suggestion may also work, but I'm not sure which would be easier to implement in the long run.
In the meantime I grabbed some mesh waves from MP that came with their own sounds and that helps cut the silence a bit, but it doesn't cover the rest of the ambiance that's clearly had a lot of love put into it! I just also don't want to cut into it for my neighbors or passersby with the normal behavior of me and my friends being generally loud on the regular. :P

another way to do this would be to have ambient sounds be added to the house rezzer itself, perhaps as a rezzable option, then no belli sound packs going wild across SL (though that would be cool too for us - maybe not fso for the lindens/moles who made them?) and not just for the stilts! All the homes suffer this same lack of local sounds if you have sounds limited to parcel... adding some ambient sount options could be done when major updates of house shapes are made in the future (like when adding open plan versions, full PBR etc)
