disable camera when phone is closed?

I just bought this phone today (my first camera-phone). After an hour or two I had a bunch of pictures of the inside of my pocket. I've read TFM but it doesn't offer any insights here. I would like to disable the camera button when the phone is closed (when am I going to want to take a picture without using the view-finder anyway?). Any ideas on how to achieve this?

Locking the entire phone would be overkill; I still need to be able to use it conveniently as a phone, after all.

This does seem to be a slight design flaw with this phone.
As far as I can tell there is no way to prevent the camera from starting-up if the side button is pressed...

There really should be an option like, "Disable camera button when closed."
I don't know if that is the kind of thing that can be added to a future software update.

On the whole I still think this is a nice basic camera phone.
