Help Hang Up + Lock Screen?

Seems to be a bit of another design error - dialpad -> dial number -> make call -> screen goes black during call -> press red to hang up -> screen locks -> menu -> menu -> dialler (to make a new call)

This is awfully long winded. A press of the red button in a call out to simply hang up and take you back to the dialler. Another press should then lock the phone. Any where else then the single press to lock the phone is great, but NOT from a phone call.
 
Replying to myself - sorry. Seems it's only a problem if the other person hangs up before you. If you hang up first then it goes back to the phone screen. If they hang up first then the chances are I press the red button too late and it's already gone to phone screen, so I end up pushing it to lock screen.

Bit hit and miss. Would rather have assignable buttons.
