Trigger privacy mode on/off when setting home/away mode

Hello,
as per object, it would really be nice -and somewhat expected- if I could trigger privacy mode on/off when setting home/away mode.
I know it has already been asked, it's strange it has not been implemented yet, it looks like a basic feature to me.
Also it looks like I cannot set home/away mode directly from the home screen anymore. It was there until yesterday, it would be a little weird to me if it was a purposeful choice, it was such a useful feature...
Hope this will help improving UX.
Thanks!
Tapo C210 V1 supports this feature with firmware 1.3.0 and later versions.
