I am proposing for a feature to use proximity sensor controlling display wake up and unlocking in Jolla with flip case.

The idea is simple. If you have your Jolla phone with flip case like this Insmat case.

When the phone is not in active use, the flip cover is closed (covering proximity sensor) and the phone is locked with display turned of. Then you need to use the phone. You open the flip cover (uncover the proximity sensor) and .... nothing happens .... why?
It would be nice, if phone could detect the opening of flip case cover, then wake up the display and unlock the phone. After the user has ended the use of phone and closes flip cover the proximity sensor would then again detect this change of state and after a small delay, turn off display and lock the phone.

That would make the phone use more convenient. No need for double tapping the display or pressing power button. Just open the flip cover and check the clock time or do what ever you want. Then close the flip cover and off you go ...
