I don't find it complex at all, it's quite simple actually :)

That's partially true. For a human ear, if the volume is low, small
volume increase makes more significant difference than for a higher
volume. Saying logarithmic I meant that, for e.g., up to 20% of volume
the volume increase steps should be smaller than above these 20%. The
next level cold be 60% for example. I find this idea usable especially
for headphones users, as they can distingiush volume changes more.

Isn't that the same what I wrote? For you the factor determining
logarithmic increments of volume change is the time while the button is
pressed, for my idea it was the current volume level determining
increments.
