If you are talking about modifying the platform, you should be on
android-porting.  I also would strongly urge against just going on and
hacking the platform like this, as you end up with patches you need to
maintain as the base platform evolves and increasing chance of creating bugs
and other issues.

As far as this request:

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/WindowManager.LayoutParams.html#FLAG_IGNORE_CHEEK_PRESSES

However I would recommend against using this flag, or trying to do a similar
thing with size information, as our experience is that it is really not
consistent enough to base discrete operations like ignoring events.
