I'm writing an app that turns off the keyguard and I would like to
exitKeyguardSecurely when you user goes back to the home screen.
This works great when hitting the Home button, but the user can back
to the home screen without prompt by using the back button (I think
this is an API bug).
So I'm trying to determine if the Home screen is displayed so I can
force exitKeyguardSecurely.
I realize homescreen replacements will break this code but until the
API bug gets fixed I don't see a good way around this.
