JLM,
Far be it for me to jump on his coat tails, but Bravada is indeed correct, with another citing of the the "form" motivated value of the push button doohicky. As I am sure you are aware, many things that have been automated in modern life, do so with the premise of a dual redundancy system. This particualr system, and the opportunity to escape/ rescue from potential fire for instance, can be circumeventing by something as simple (and highly probable in an impact) as an unserviceable battery. It does look good but stands up poorly to practical scrutiny, kind of like Buick port "holes".
There is no denying their aesthetic value however. They just need some emergency release handles (a la aircraft canopies) fitted somewhere.
