Issue 33: Launcher does not clear its own application stack on launch
Project Member Reported by swlass...@gmail.com, May 6, 2011
How to reproduce:

1. open giraf launcher
2. go into admin mode
3. click home-button
4. choose giraf launcher (if not selected as default)
5. the launcher does not show the home screen - instead the admin mode is kept on top of the stack, and therefore, is still being shown to the user.

This is not intended behavior. instead, after clicking home in step 3, the launcher should show the home screen of the giraf system.

However, this is one of the bugs that we have had corrected until we were told to rollback - the fix is here:

Open the AndroidManifest file:

Before:
        <activity 
         android:name="sw6.launcher.launcher"
            android:label="@string/giraf"
            android:icon="@drawable/icon">

After:

        <activity 
         android:name="sw6.launcher.launcher"
            android:label="@string/giraf"
            android:icon="@drawable/icon"
            android:launchMode="singleTask"
            android:clearTaskOnLaunch="true"
            android:stateNotNeeded="true">
