Can someone please help me tweak the setting which makes the screen rotate from landscape to portrait when the screen gets slid back over the keyboard.
I have a hardware button mapped to rotate the screen. I often use the unit in landscape and when doing so I occasionally want access to the keyboard. So I slide the screen up, type whatever I want to type, then slide it back. It's very annoying that doing so forces the screen back to portrait.
The behaviour I want is this: [When in portrait] sliding open causes rotation to landscape.
[When in landscape] sliding open changes nothing.
[When in landscape] sliding closed changes nothing (currently it causes rotation to portrait).
1 & 2 are the default behaviours. Is it possible to keep them and add 3?

it's very annoying, i know. it doesn't only happen with the keyboard application, but also with the camera application. someone has suggested that the software for the Wizard was written by highly trained monkeys. i believe (s)he's right.
