http://armin-warda.de/maemo-mapper-1.0.1-aw-0.4_armel.deb contains an option to disable the default behaviour 'Maemo-Mapper disconnects from GPS when the device cover is closed'. Thus it allows you to operate Maemo-Mapper with a closed device cover, which protects the touchscreen. (Like maemo-mapper-1.0.1-aw-0.3_armel.deb, it also supports two sets of URI/Map parameters, and easy toggling these.)
I think operation with closed cover is an important feature for outdoor activities with Maemo-Mapper & GPS, such as hiking, running, cycling,.. (NOTE: you must also disable the corresponding device's global setting: 'Tools' -> 'Control Panel' -> Connectivity' -> 'Disconnect when cover on device').
It would be really greate if Maemo-Mapper's author, John Costello alias 'gnuite', could add such a feature into his Maemo-Mapper mainline, which is already at v1.1.0, while my modification is still based on v1.0.1 (this has no timestamps in gpx-files).

It seem like this is the place I have to patch if I want Maemo-Mapper to keep recording GPS track info even when I close the cover.
