Enable sync when mobile data disabled

When mobile data is safely disabled, the only possible data transfer is via WiFi, for which I do not pay and which has higher bandwidth than mobile data, thus it is safe to re-enable background syncing.

When in a car, the phone is usually being used as an MP3 player. If the screen locks and I want to skip to the next track or something, I have to unlock the device, which is a dangerous distraction from driving.

I enable mobile data only temporarily, when I need internet access and no WiFi is available. When I do so, this rule prevents background syncing from interfering with whatever internet access I am attempting.

Prevent mobile transmissions from causing ugly interference noises when in a car and using the phone as an MP3 player. Secondarily, prevent people from contacting me while driving, as that could distract me and cause an accident.

Re-enable screen lock when I am likely to no longer be in a car using the phone as an MP3 player. A better trigger would be the edge state transition from in-car to not-in-car, but I don't see a way to do this - hint, hint :-P
