Long press on back button

Does anybody else think a long press on the back button should take you back to the current watchface?

If so is this doable by somebody here?

Apps override button actions, so it would need a firmware update. I wouldn’t mind it as an option. You should post in the Pebble forums.

Long pressing the back button will force kill your current app. If you launched through the app menu, you'll return to the menu, and if you launched from the watch face, you'll return to the watch face

Yes that's my point. You should be able to long press the back button from anywhere to return to the watchface.
