I'm sure someone already asked this: Why not have one native button, that when we build for platform x compiles for that platform? We have a mac button, an android button, and an ios button. We have an android field, a mac field (no ios field)... I can't wait for someone to hack the navigation bar so you can add whatever icons you like. I've looked at doing it, but it's not on the front burner.
