But with regard to people ringing you, it's also hugely useful when travelling. I've been away from the UK working in Australia for the last three months, and phone calls often come 'in the middle of the night'.
The current behaviour of muting all but the alarms you've set works very well, so as long as there's an option to choose it I'll be happy when 5.0 drops onto my Nexus 4.

I've never owned an Android phone, just Android tablets, but if I flip the switch on the side of my iPhone to "Silent", then I expect it to mean just that - that all noise will be suppressed, and that is of course exactly what it does mean. If I didn't want to be disturbed by phone calls at night, but I wanted the alarm turned on, I'd simply switch my phone to "Flight mode", so that all calls went straight to voicemail.
