auto-lenscap?

Hi all,

Maybe this is a stupid question, but I couldn't find the answer online.  The "luxury compacts" (LX-5/7, XZ-1/2, EX1/2) have 3rd party "auto-lenscaps" that are pushed open by the zoom lens when it extends.

Is there anything available like that for conventional lenses?  Maybe a spring-loaded mechanism to "pop" it open and latches to hold it in the closed position?  I'm often wrangling my kid with one hand while holding my NX200 with the other, and I end up shoving it back in my (dusty) pocket with no lens cap.

Thanks.
