Kazuki, this MIGHT explain the bootloop I had that caused me to need to reflash. However, I don't actually recall if I uninstalled it or not. *Shrug* Mine was getting unstable before that though, and having other odd problems, that it's currently not developing since I installed the cl-launcher post-reflash.
Anyway, this certainly IS a problem - have you mentioned it to the dev? On the other hand, it's technically still usable until you uninstall it. Lol.
Changegames - I think both of these apps, flashlight-extra and cl-launcher, are both capable of being configured to turn on flashlight automatically upon opening of the lens cover.
flashlight-extra currently has scripts that cause +10%-ish increase in CPU use, which have to be manually removed, and apparently in at least Kazuki's case, cl-launcher causes boot-loop upon uninstall.
So up to you which you go for, but unless you're really sure you're okay with cl-launcher, I'd wait until at least one of these got that issue fixed.
P.S. Kazuki, if your statement means you had to go through reflashing and uninstalling everything, ouch. I just went through that, not fun. Far more painless than I thought it would be, but still, not fun. Hope restoring your N900 back to however you want it goes smoothly for you.

. Reason: Meant that flashing was less painful than I expected it to be, not more.
