    I’m imagining that the flap is behind the LCD, and now I’m wondering if anyone ever made a VHS deck like that

      Don’t think so, can’t recall seeing one. The flap is mechanically lifted when a tape is ejected, and I suppose a flap with an integrated display would be significantly heavier, increasing wear and tear on the mechanism, and then there’s potentially the issue of the cassettes scratching the display to shit.
