Today, on the metro, I have seen an iPad user swiping from the middle to up to get the application closed. I am not so sure whether we can do the same thing in the multitasking display (by swiping from right to left). We can throw the app to up, then close the app. An user had the same thought as me, proposing a closing all button or function somewhere to close all of the running apps. We do need the feature since we may have more than 10 running apps, then the multitasking display is more crowded, and closing each of them one by one is troublesome as well.
For the home screen, I think it would be easy to go/find. That is normally referred to as a base for navigation. People like to find a home, then navigate to other places. For us, the home is a lot of screen, and this may be a little bit confusing.
