Screen off
Is it possible to make the phone switch to standby by mode? This would be valuable, since the phone could be made to switch off the screen when the phone is placed face up or face down on a table. This would allow for an increase of the screen standby time.
Would also be nice if the screen automatically was switched on when the phone exits the situation.

While technically possible, I’m wary of implementing a true “screen off” setting. I could imagine the combination of some sort of third party plug-in condition and a screen off setting causing the screen to turn off once per second, effectively locking a user out of their phone.
What is the underlying goal with this request? Could you simply set the screen timeout to 15 seconds when the phone is face up or face down, and a longer timeout in the defaults? I believe that might effectively accomplish the same end result of turning the screen off very quickly when the phone is lying flat.
