There is no g-code that will tell EMC2 "do a homing sequence".  There is
G28, but that says "go to the home position", assuming that you've
already homed the machine so it knows where that position is.

It might be a nice feature to be able to automatically issue a home-all
when you go into "machine on", if it isn't already homed.  I know a
certain EMC2 developer who was always forgetting to home the Mazak at
the CNC workshop....
