Phone Lock Password

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong on the following points:

1. You cannot enable the Q to "KEYBOARD LOCK" automatically after a certain amount of time.

2. If you want an automatic keyboard lock after a certain interval - you must use the "PHONE LOCK" feature, which requires a password

3. The password for the phone lock MUST be numeric? (I tried text but it wouldn't work)

4. Therefore, whenever you want to unlock your phone - you must hit the "ALT" key to do so before each digit of your password - thus DOUBLING the keystrokes to unlock your phone.

Is this really the way they built this?

FYI - this is related to a more ubiquitous issue that I posted earlier:

I think you just hit the alt key twice (quickly) and it "locks" so each key press is for the alternate function (like caps lock).
