@Pat Unlocking the SIM from any app is unnecessary. What we said though
is that the unlocking prompt should at least happen in the phone and
messaging app on action and that for a later release. E.g. if a user is
trying to make a phone call and taps the call button, the unlock prompt
will appear. User still can dismiss this step. Currently user is
redirected to system settings to unlock the SIM.

Title:
  [SIM PIN] System Settings missing SIM unlock

Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
  Fix Committed
Status in “ubuntu-system-settings” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Build r91

  1. set up a SIM PIN or make sure the inserted SIM has already a set up SIM PIN (reboot device if needed)
  2. after reboot, don't unlock
  3. navigate to System Settings > Security & Privacy > SIM PIN

  What you see: A green tick on the toggle next to the SIM PIN and
  beneath that a "Change PIN..." button

  What you should see: Some way to unlock the SIM without turning off
  the SIM PIN.

  There are three relevant states for a SIM:
  (A) no SIM PIN set
  (B) SIM PIN set, SIM locked
  (C) SIM PIN set, SIM unlocked.

  If a SIM PIN is set, when you start up the phone you have the choice
  to unlock it (switch from B to C) or not (stay on B).

  If you don't unlock it, you can't make or receive calls, send or
  receive SMS, or use cellular data in any app. And you probably can't
  predict ahead of time whether you'll want to do any of those things.

  Currently System Settings only lets you turn the SIM PIN on (A to C)
  or off (C to A), not to unlock it. It's not reasonable to expect every
  app, that might use cellular data, to provide its own access point for
  unlocking the SIM. Therefore, System Settings should let you do this
  too.

  "Whenever it is locked, at the trailing end should be an 'Unlock…'
  button..."
