Make it harder to dismiss alarm #89

--from stefan a.--

To start of I have to say that I have this really bad habit of turning off my 
alarm in the morning, when I really shouldn't. So I had this idea of having an 
alarm which you silence by shaking your phone to help you wake up. Original, 
right?

What I had in mind was that the alarm would be faded to silence as long as you 
keep the phone in motion. Doing this for a set amount of time (configurable) 
would turn the alarm off completely (signaled by a short vibration). If you 
don't keep shaking the phone the alarm would fade in to full effect again until 
you would either complete the action again or press the snooze button.

Also, enabling this option should hide the button to turn off the alarm as 
well, leaving only a snooze button to be pressed. Or at least hide it under the 
menu to make it require a bit more effort (and cognitivity) to press, and also 
so as not to hit it by mistake. Come to think of it, this would probably be 
better suited as a separate option/feature regardless of shaking.
