They added this feature in the firmware version 5.20.346, released in March this year. By default you double-press the menu button (the one that opens the reader's menu when you press it just once). It disables the touch sensor fully, so no page swiping or other touch gestures are possible, only the physical buttons can be used.
From the release notes:

Adding functionality of disabling of the sensor panel during reading. It would be helpful, on the one hand, to avoid accidental touch events, for example, while reading in transport, and on the other hand, it would help to save battery energy. By default, this function is set to double click of “Menu” button (with possibility to set this functionality to any other but in “Key mapping” branch of Settings app).
