Thank you for the review.

Having this is actually useful, because users do need to check if
they actually have a home-button:

1. Always setting this may lead to false-positive home button presses
   on some models (IIRC, this has been around for a long time)

2. The home button typical is a windows logo printed on the front of
   cheap windows tablets below the screen. Recently I was adding info
   for yet another such cheap tablet and I asked the user to test
   the home-button since the windows logo was clearly there visually.
   But on this specific model touching the windows logo does not do
   anything.

Combined these 2 make it useful for users to be able to explicitly
test the home-button functionality.

Regards,

Hans
