Back is also a place. The Back button takes you to that place.
Home is a place. The Home button is a navigation button because
it takes you to that place called Home.

be the other.
IF THE DEFINITION OF TO DESIGN A USER INTERFACE, WERE WHAT YOU ARE
ASKING FOR, I WOULD ADD IN EVERYPLACE ONE SHORTCUT FOR EVERYFUNCTION.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could say the same for Home? :)

I have to say that I agree that the Home button should really be on the

That's true. Powerusers almost never use the Home

I tend to strongly disagree. Are you telling me that your home (as in place
where you reside in the physical world), isn't a place that you navigate to
a lot when you want to get home?
And, Home has been with those other Navigation buttons (back, forward, etc.)

A Home button, is a shortcut... almost a bookmark. And Back, Forward,

The purpose of the home button is to have this one particular site
