as if the first Return press breaks something.
Main carriage return key or the numberpad? Does it do the same for
both.
I wouldn't do what you're doing, anyway. You don't know if you're
looking at a locked screen or something else until you see a display
come up. Hitting return could always confirm something that you didn't
intend to.
I always hit a neutral key, like the shift key, to wake up a blanked
screen. I've yet to see anything accept a shift key being pressed by
itself as an activator for something, with one exception: Somewhere in
the past, something used three presses of the shift key to activate a
feature.
