Then make the single key lock an user selectible option. I never had a
problem with the archos firmware method (long ON press) and I won't with
rockbox. A 2 key press is sufficiently worthless to me that I seldom use it,
instead resorting to various taped-on guards. The only time I use the lock is
when I don't have time to attach a guard.
