FEATURE IDEA: Hardware button inputs from on screen gestures

Suggestion

Much like the title suggests, we need access to inputs hard buttons provide on the screen, possibly from a nav bar gesture. I was thinking swiping across all three nav bar buttons (on screen) brings up and option wheel with: Shutdown, restart, volume controls, and screen shot. Maybe allow us to quick trigger specifics with a custom gesture( or direction of swipe).

Hard buttons fail over time this could be the best way to work around that and preserve phones longer. My 928 succumbed to a failing power button, I would still be using it if this were an option.

What do you all think?
