The official stance from Google is that your application should not have an
actual "exit" feature - that is what the home button is for.  When creating
an app you should handle onPause/onStop correctly so that you are not
running unnecessary processes in the background.  Also, the back button
generally (by default) will simply run finish() on the current activity ...
 seems to be working correctly for me in all cases with the latest build.

Not trying to throw fuel on a fire, just making the point that Android has
particulars with respect to how the SDK is meant to work.

Cheers,
David
