Confirming.
Nokia answered: "That is the expected behavior. Application view menu is not accessible in the lens cover closed state. This is a WONTFIX for Maemo5."
Thanks. I realise now I hadn't added a concrete use-case. I was going out on a journey, and wished to turn geotagging on, so I would have tags for any pictures taken during that journey. I did not however want to take any pictures at that time, hence opening the camera shutter seemed a non-obvious thing to do. Probably still a WONT though.
