I too often find myself frustrated by lieing down with my iPhone for a minute and my web page going on it's side. Maybe something like holding two fingers down as you rotate to "hold in place" or some such. One of my biggest iPhone gripes after a year.

But I can think of the following concerning the landscape: Wouldn't it be handy if the landscape showed the settings section of your app (or maybe another view that is logically separated from your main app) per default (of course allowing the user to change this behaviour if he really likes to view your app in landscape)?
