Make a Jolla tablet version completely without physical buttons

Now that Sailfish 2.0 has the three-finger swipe for volume, it would be really cool to have a tablet version that has no buttons at all - a completely solid piece of hardware with no moving parts at all!

A paper-clip hole could allow emergency reset, and plugging in the charger could also be used as a physical interaction if needed, but on the whole it could be completely button free!

Edit: Actually, this would be really good for a phone too, I would never again have the "my phone turned off in my jeans pocket because the button got pressed for a long time"-silent failure.
