As suual I'm behind on my email.

I verified that triple click currently has no default action. 
Double-clicking home goes to favorites and a triple just goes back home 
again. Only after enabling the triple-click in preferences does it do 
anything useful.

I guess I can understand Apple not wanting to make this a default as 
some percentage of users would stumble upon it and then not know how to 
get out of it. Maybe something more obscure like a three finger touch 
while triple-home clicking. Something doable without sighted assistance 
but not easily stumbled upon. For those not familiar with VO on an 
iPhone accidentally enabling VO would be quite a bad experience.
