If you have central locking then the flap locks shut with a solenoid, so you wouldn't need to lock the cap inside the flap.

Lock your car and try and open the flap.
There is a solenoid that fires a pin out from the left of the flap when looking from outside, through the hole in the catch, locking the flap.
If in doubt, go and have a look!

Of course it doesn't
Reading it again though, he does basically say you won't need the key to lock the cap.
That'd be a nifty bit of engineering if that were the case.
