Haven't heard if akira751 learned anything additional on SmartKey and the rear hatch operation but...

The "put the smart key away" comment was focused on proving what is in the owners manual is fact..If you lock your HL using the buttons on the front door handles and then open the rear hatch you need to relock the doors by using the lock button on the rear hatch.

The point of the post was that unless your sales person pointed this fact out or you are data compulsive and ACTUALLY READ YOUR OWNERS MANUAL (page 34) you would not be aware that opening the hatch after locking the doors via the front door buttons would leave your HL unlocked if you didn't close the hatch and relock using the lock button on the hatch.

SmartKey is great.
I would not shy away from a Limited because it had this feature.
