REQ: Auto Rotate portrait and back on SIP (de-)activation

[Guest us1111]

Hi,

Because of the fact that I'm typing far better in portrait mode, I always have to go into messaging, rotate the screen, start typing and rotate back because of manilla or other landscape based ui's.

I was wondering if there is some event based action possible, so that when the keyboard is visible or started, the screen is set in portrait mode? And if not, it returns to the previous state?

I would rather not do it with (for example) with mortscript, because you would get battery draining loops again. This might be a good one for the rotation service qbus wrote??

Edit: also it would be nice to (optionaly) hide the taskbar also in portrait mode.. I always press the send button by mistake
