[Idea] Car mode / Drive mode / Handless mode

Yaaarrrr little sailors ! (It's mean hello in pirate language)

I got super cool idea ! Could you imagine a drive mode on your Jolla that you can configure for example : Deactivate sms/mail notification while driving. Activate GPS and A-GPS. Launch XXX App (Navit for example). and the famous idea handless "take a call".

Let me explain the idea. You climb up in your car (What is the typical car of sailor ? ;) ), and you activate the "Car mode", you hang your Jolla on his support on the air vent. Let's it the road ! You are driving on a winding road to go to Lappeenranta to eat their famous little donut with ham, cooked egg, and other strange things in it. You avoid some elk, and lots of speed cameras. Suddenly your mom/girlfriend/boyfriend/crush/dog/cat (choose the right one) is calling, you know that if you don't take that call, she/he/it will call all your relationships to know if you are still alive (don't tell me that's not true !).

I normal case you could easily answer that call by swipping your finger on the phone, but...

...is watching you !

Hopefully, with the handless answer, you just have to wave your hand above the proximity sensor which will automatically answer to the call and put it on the speaker.

End of the story !
