Okay, that doesn't quite work: pen buttons are never sent alone, they're always sent as part of a pen input stream. So, you need to actually *touch* the screen (or, well, hover really near it) to get a button event.
On the other hand, since we don't support drawing, you can actually simply use the pen itself to turn pages, which should work just fine with the device/cover in a propped up setup.
(I'm actually mildly surprised nickel doesn't provide a setting to do just that: you can use the pen to click on menus & stuff, but it's scribble time forever as soon as you're in a book where scribbling is enabled ^^).
