ipad smart cover auto unlock clock and status bar issue after ios7

Im using an ipad mini with apples smart cover (auto lock/unlock enabled), it used to show the lockscreen(before swipe) whenever I opened the case, but after ios7,whenever I open the case,its already swiped and I have tu enter my code.
the bug is that you have no clock in the status bar on the code screen. whichs forces you to enter your code each time you open the cover just for checking the time! or swiping back to the lockscreen.
any fixes?

iPad, iOS 7, ipad mini

I know.. it was better in iOS 6..

To make the clock (time) appear without entering the code simply Tap the Screen once.

For example:

While holding the ipad in the landscape position peel the cover open just enough to get your thumb under the cover and tap just below the battery indicator.
