State: open

1. write an application with a simple phone number in

tag, eg

212-736-5000

2. compile the app, and launch it in iOS
3. do not navigate away from the screen.
4. Press the switch off button on top of the iPad
5. Switch the screen back on and slide to unlock to reveal your previous state

Result:
the number turns into a link, and you can click it to Add to Contacts, Copy (call if on iPhone)

Expected:
Though this is a useful behavior, it should be consistent.
The developer must be able to turn on/off this feature all the time.
