I miss this from my old Motorola Android phones, along with the squeeze feature on IIRC the Nexus. It would definitely be nice to have for me.
However I've found that flashlight is still relatively accessible. It's three actions - press power, drag finger down from top of screen, tap Flashlight. Not too bad, but not possible from muscle memory or with gloves on. Good for looking under the seat for your keys at a movie, bad for quick reactions.
When I'm traveling or outside at night, I tend to carry a dedicated flashlight, but I'm odd like that.
