The Secret Vault door at level 5 requires you to rest to open it.

...you're not required to rest at that location. It's enought to stand on the spot for about 1 minute. However, resting is probably faster.

I also thought resting was a requirement, because of the wording in the hint. However, on second run I thought I should try to just stand in place at the right location. And if you use your mouse to turn the view a little, while facing the right direction, you can see when the iron door opens.
