Kill switches for webcam, Wifi and microphones?

I wonder if there is any interest in doing what Pine64 did with their pinephone, namely adding physical kill switches for added security. I assume these would have to go in the bezel area and would constitute an add-on feature. They could be flat sliding switches kind of similar to the thinkshutter switch on Thinkpads. I’ve heard of people putting tape over microphones and everyone’s put a sticker on the webcam at some point. But a real electrical killswitch would be a nicer solution.

Current model have physical kill switches for the webcam and the microphone, but not for the wireless card.
