Ability to set a sticky timeline card that is displayed on screen wake #75

Would it be possible that if the card was a high priority then the screen 
wouldn't come on but instead the card was the first thing available on the tap? 
rather than the home screen?

That way just looking up would make the card viewable rather than having to use 
your hands.

This sounds a lot like the built in behavior of navigation, which might be 
useful to Glassware.

Do you have any specific use cases that require this? Use cases help us tailor 
the details to your needs, so please share!

I am making a workout app and if I have a timed workout I can have the server 
send a new card after x seconds. When the card arrives the user currently has 
to either tap or light their head and then scroll over to the new card to see 
the next move.

It would be nice if with just a head lift they get the details and can just 
keep going. For situations where you have weights in your hands this is a big 
bonus.

I have other examples but NDA.. :(

My use case for this functionality is a real time heart rate monitor display.  
In my case I could see three ways this kind of sticky timeline card or home 
screen replacement might appear after a user specified it as the card they want 
to pay attention to:

1) The user wakes the device.  Instead of seeing the home screen they should 
see the card.

2) An event occurs.  In my case it might be a certain HR level is met.  The 
device automatically shows the sticky card.

3) An amount of time elapses.  The user might ask to have their HR displayed 
every 60 seconds.  Every 60 seconds the screen would turn on for the default 
amount of time.
