  - Split polygen applet in a separate app, ran via a .desktop file
    (faster zavai startup time, can then integrate a browser in the polygen
     applet, makes more sense altogether)
+ - Is there a way to lock the screen completely turning off the touchscreen, so
+   that interrupts are not even generated?
 
 Not quite needed yet:
  - GPX log with more features (quality, course, speed, ...)
