[Sugar-devel] Exiting Activity started from Home returns to Journal view or another Activity view

Sugar 0.84.x seems to have a regression in behavior from 0.82
See http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10264

<http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10264>Perhaps someone knows of a quick fix for
this. Efforts to pin the cause have not been fruitful so far.

An Activity launched from the Home view, when exited, returned focus to the
Journal view. This was an unexpected change of context not experienced on
build 802.

Testing with SoaS-Strawberry (Sugar 0.84.2) revealed that
    if the Activity had no previous entry in the Journal
the focus would return to Home view on exit.
    else
the focus would return to the Journal or another running Activity, if
present.

On Sugar 0.88.1 (Xephyr window in Fedora)
    the focus returns to the Home view if launched from there
    or to the Journal if launched from there.

The 0.88  & 0.82 behavior seem correct (as there is no surprise about where
you end up on leaving an Activity).
