With flush I meant that the screen should not be receded in the case. I fully endorse that the screen doesn't go to the edges (as I very much like the navigation and what not buttons).

Actually thought of another option that would be nice:
- A tactile scroller or a wheel on the right side of the screen. That way scrolling could be done with right thumb.
I really hate scrolling with the dpad, especially since it sometimes registers as a single click and jumps to whatever it feels like.
