The last “widget” was about the lock feature.
There was a poll regarding how users would like a lock function implemented.
Personally, I prefer to work outside the box. The touch pad has been a lightning rod for issues with the new device. I would like to use its quirkiness as its strongest attribute. This can all be done with software.
When locked , the touchpad can be remapped, not just “disabled”. The beauty of a touch pad is that you no longer need to fine a specific spot on the pad to operate it, with the exception of controlling the unlock. My preference is to have alternate functions when locked, like a multiple-tap play/pause anywhere on the pad (this requires a deliberate rate of tap, so it doesn’t do things you don’t want), as well as a novel “sweep to skip” function, that would be sublime.
The development team is trying different possibilities, rest assured.
