Or anyone sitting to the side of you two seats away,
who is doing something with their camera-enabled
cellphone, and so on.  Maybe what is needed is
like a curtain arrangement--you tilt your laptop
lid toward you to reduce the view-access angle, then
drop down a curtain from the lid edges to block vision
of the keyboard, then push a button to retract the
curtain -- like a device in a 1960's USA movie :-) .
Of course, then it's pretty obvious you are typing 
something special so that's when the attacker turns
on the camera and sound recorder.....
