Regarding to this brainstorm (I couldn't find the discussion thread), it's said to be implemented, but is it?

Have watched the video, two month since then and no change in both SDK or retail N900, no extra buttons or additional gestures as was proposed in the solutions. I still have to do several unintuitive clicks before I reach the desired place.

That's the only thing I have figured out, though holding the button for 3 seconds is very long and doesn't make anything less inefficient or inconsistent.

So what has been really implemented?
