This is a very good point.

I am concerned, after looking at the implementation, than it is too closed
and will not be easy change it in the future.
More because the feature is named "multiple home views", and I imagined
(may be erroneously) than implied more than 2.
The implementation copy paste a lot of code, maybe if we use a array to
keep the data of the different views,
is more open to future enhancements. (tags on activities, by example)
I agree is better keep it simple, too.
