I already do it similar to how the win8metro implementation is using,
basically overriding getHeading with my own implementations. The problem is the
following:
The way to get compass data on webOS is to add an event listener
window.addEventListener("compass",...) but that also means that I have to start
and stop
the listener myself if I don't want it to keep running. The common plugin for
accelerometer keeps track of listeners and starting and stopping but the common
plugin for compass does not .. any ideas?

The same is done on the playbook as we just use the device motion event:
