New key for possible hatch release?

Is it possible/practical to add a push button hatch release in cockpit? Is the exterior touch-panel a simple momentary-contact or does it include some sort of circuit board?

Two things -

1 -it's surprising there isn't an inside hatch release button; and

2 - I never let anyone open or close my trunk/hatch. Way too many dolts that slam the sh1t out of doors/trunks/hatches when closing them.

Well there's always the manual release cable. You could probably replace it with a longer cable and route it up to a pull-tab near the driver's seat.
