I have no problems whatsoever with where i land when i open my app. If i land 
in Skype home, then so be it, it's just a matter of interacting with the first 
table you see and go to contacts and then stop interacting.  What i have issues 
with is the fact that you can read facebook posts and comments in skype, and 
you can comment and stuff, but you can't write a status update only for 
facebook, it goes to skype and optionally to facebook, but that is not an 
accessibility issue, it's a handling issue and maybe you can even write 
comments only to facebook , but i just don't know how.
