That 'unusualness' just may be why it would work so well.
However, "hidden contact" (of some sort) could be considered more accurate but it's the same idea.
And the contact would undoubtedly be equipped w/ some sophisticated like a DNA sensor or somesuch.

 Hidden buttons @ TL15 will be

 Or just have the right voiceprint, retina
 scans, fingerprints, brain
 activity
 patterns, passcodes, appearance, implants, memories, DNA,
 bone shapes, physical keys, salivary protein
 folding patterns,
 idiosyncratic mannerisms,
 and/or whatever other identification and
 authentication systems might be employed in the
 design or later
 modification of a very
 expensive ultra-tech potential weapon of mass
 destruction.

 Though yes, hidden buttons do have a certain
 quaint charm.
