Thank you, Sieghard, for your reply. You bring up a good point when you mention how easy it could be for someone stealing a phone to gain access to an account if the "comma pause" feature were to be implemented. This drawback coupled with the possible difficulty of precisely managing the number of commas to be inserted before the string of auto-dialed digits might well dissuade my friend from trying the feature; but I'll tell him about it anyway.
