The system of claim 1, said configuration to mate comprising a configuration to slide. 3. The system of claim 1, further comprising: said drawer space comprising a substantially rectangular cuboidal space bounded by a rearmost surface of said integrated mobile phone protective case, a rear surface of said regular case portion, an upper surface of said drawer space, two side surfaces of said drawer space, all of which surfaces are closed, and a carriage drawer opening which is open;said personal item carriage drawer being separate from said drawer space and configured to mate and fit into said drawer space, with a bottom one of said five surfaces of said carriage drawer comprising said drawer cover; wherein:said drawer space and said personal item carriage drawer are configured such that mating said personal item carriage drawer into said drawer space simultaneously mates said drawer cover onto said integrated mobile phone protective case such that all six surfaces of said personal item carriage drawer become enclosed such that any personal items contained within said personal item carriage drawer become fully enclosed on all sides within said integrated mobile phone protective case; andmate said personal item carriage drawer into said drawer space also simultaneously latching said latching extension together with said latch thereby preventing said personal item carriage drawer and said drawer cover from being removed from said integrated mobile phone protective case until said release actuator is actuated to release said latching extension from said latch. 4. The system of claim 1, further comprising: said drawer space comprising a substantially rectangular cuboidal space bounded by a rear surface of said regular case portion, an upper surface of said drawer space, two side surfaces of said drawer space, and a lower surface of said drawer space, all of which surfaces are closed, and an open rearmost surface of said integrated mobile phone protective case which is open;said personal item carriage drawer being one and the same as said drawer space;said drawer cover being separate from said personal item carriage drawer and configured such that mating said drawer cover onto said integrated mobile phone protective case encloses said open rearmost surface of said integrated mobile phone protective case and thereby encloses all six surfaces of said personal item carriage drawer such that any personal items contained within said personal item carriage drawer become fully enclosed on all sides within said integrated mobile phone protective case; andmating said drawer cover onto said integrated mobile phone protective case simultaneously latches said latching extension together with said latch thereby preventing said drawer cover from being removed from said integrated mobile phone protective case until said release actuator is actuated to release said latching extension from said latch. 5. The system of claim 1, further comprising a latch aid/cover ejection member of said integrated mobile phone protective case, for ejecting said drawer cover at least partially from said integrated mobile phone protective case in response to actuating said release actuator. 6. The system of claim 1, said carrier drawer providing a portable safe, further comprising a lock for preventing said release actuator from being actuated to release said latching extension from said latch, until the user has supplied correct credentials to unlock said lock. 7. The system of claim 6, said lock comprising a physical combination lock which must be physically moved to said correct credentials comprising a correct lock combination, before the user can actuate said release actuator. 8. The system of claim 6, said release actuator comprising an electronic keypad which unlocks and releases said latching extension from said latch, only in response to receiving said correct credentials comprising a correct combination. 9. The system of claim 6, said release actuator comprising a voice keypad which unlocks and releases said latching extension from said latch, only in response to receiving said correct credentials comprising a correct vocal utterance. 10. The system of claim 6, said release actuator comprising a biometric keypad which unlocks and releases said latching extension from said latch, only in response to receiving said correct credentials comprising correct biometric data. 11. A method for securely containing small personal items within an integrated mobile phone protective case and carrier drawer system, comprising: placing a mobile phone into a regular mobile phone protective case portion of said integrated mobile phone protective case, said regular case portion configured to receive and hold a mobile phone within a phone housing space thereof, and thereby surrounding and protecting the mobile phone with a back surface, a top surface, a bottom surface, and two side surfaces of said regular case portion, while leaving a front surface of the mobile phone accessible to a user's vision and touch;providing a drawer space integrally contained inside a rear part of said integrated mobile phone protective case, said drawer space comprising a substantially rectangular cuboid enclosing five out of six surfaces of said substantially rectangular cuboid with the remaining sixth surface being open;providing a latch integrally affixed with said integrated mobile phone protective case;providing a personal item carriage drawer comprising a substantially rectangular cuboid enclosing five out of six surfaces of said substantially rectangular cuboid with the remaining sixth surface being open;mating a drawer cover separate from said integrated mobile phone protective case onto said rear part of said integrated mobile phone protective case, and as a consequence, enclosing all six surfaces of said personal item carriage drawer and thereby fully enclosing on all sides within said integrated mobile phone protective case, any personal items contained within said personal item carriage drawer;providing a latching extension integrally affixed with said drawer cover and configured to latch together with said latch; andby mating said drawer cover onto said rear part of said integrated mobile phone protective case, preventing said drawer cover from being removed from said integrated mobile phone protective case by simultaneously latching said latching extension latching together with said latch, such that any personal items contained within said personal item carriage drawer within said integrated mobile phone protective case cannot be removed from said drawer so long as said latching extension remains latched together with said latch. 12.
