biteSMS has a lot of options, but I can't seem to find the two simple options I'm looking for...

I want a status bar icon to show up on the lock screen, with a count, when I have new messages. The only way I seem to be able to accomplish this is by enabling the Quick List. The problem is I don't want the quick list to be opened when I tap the status bar icon on the lock screen - my phone is locked for a reason. However, I would like the Quick List on the regular home screen. I don't see a way to separate them though. Is this possible? I don't want any actions to take place on the lock screen except for unlocking the phone (to prevent accidental openings, etc) - especially a simple little tap at the top.

The second thing is that if the phone is sleeping, I don't want the screen to turn on when I receive a message. I just want the alert sound to play, and then when I wake the phone, I'll see the icon on the lock screen. Is there a way to disable this wake-upon-new-message feature? I thought I saw it somewhere before but I can't find it anywhere...

Any help is appreciated, thanks.
