It's a split button, so depressing on the main arrow button should depress both, but main arrow button shouldn't be depressed if attached drop down control is actioned on as it's a secondary control. This is standard for split button behaviour

I'm a bit puzzled...Standard behavior? I'm seeing a number of other products that work the same as XY does now, including some M$ ones...BTW, I believe a nbr of other split buttons work the same as this one, including the back button.

Also, back to the "Home" button...I've looked at some other appl's that have them and the two things that they have consistently are a defined roof line and a door...XY's new button doesn't have eiither...so could we do a bit of home remodeling and add a door and roof?

Yep, it is standard behaviour for the drop-down button to be allowed to be pressed separately. May I ask what products (and their versions!) you're encountering it in? I'm seeing said behaviour in Explorer, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Office, Adobe Acrobat Reader, Live Messenger amongst others. Those are some pretty major products, wouldn't you say?
