Yes, when there are permanent elements at the bottom of the screen, going to the last element and then using left flicks to move back through the page will automatically take you to the end of the page when you come off the bottom row, just as using right flicks from the top row will automatically take you to the first item on the page after the fixed items. A good place to test this on both sides is whilst reading email messages.
