As far as I know, it is not possible to just resume to the previous application.
As you can see, I'm simply emulating ctrl-backspace, so my hack works everywhere, including desktop. Maybe you could use it?

I've uploaded a new version which sends ctrl-backspace instead of using dbus. It now works from the desktop too. Thanks to hopbeat for the code.

Is there any drawback to installing both at the same time? I think both would have their practical uses.

We are planning to combine the proximity sensor and camera key functionality into a single program in the future. Maybe even with a control panel plugin for configuration.

ok one problem I have found is that if you use this and load applet to take a screenshot you end up with screen shots of dashboard. Anyway to have your program disable if someone is about to take a screenshot with load applet?

I will answer, as we are merging the projects (with mine proximity dashboard): we will add the option to disable functions when certain apps are running (the example you gave, quake 3 and proximity sensor etc.). Thanks for noting this.

I have created an application called 'camkeyd' which allows the camera button (focus) to be used to access the dashboard from fullscreen applications. I find it especially useful with the web browser when I have the hardware keyboard closed.
Currently there are no configuration options whatsoever, installing the package enables the daemon and removing the package disables it. Light press (focus) accesses the dashboard (only when the lens cover is on, so it does not interfere with normal camera operation). Unfortunately
it does not work on desktop andit does not resume last application on second press (I don't know if that's possible at all).Camkeyd is currently available in extras-devel (user/system). I'm not sure if its user-friendly enough to enter extras(-testing) just yet, but it works for me.
If you try it, please give some feedback. The usual warning about extras-devel applies (do not enable/use it if you're not ready for a reflash etc...)
About adding features:
- I do not know if previous application can be easily resumed, XSetInputFocus had no effect
- I am unsure whether the default action of launching the camera with full button press can be overridden, so there is not much reason for any configuration options
