Yeah, among other stuff that's used for idle detection. I could limit
this to non-motion sensors, but that would only be a short time gain.
Eventually we want to allow a) auto landscape/portrait switching and
b) more fancy application-specific things with the sensors.

The sensors are there, we want to use them :)
