Closing an android app closes the whole android layer [released]

When one exits an android app from it's own menu like Skype's sign out, or steam's exit the whole android layer closes down, id like it to stay open if i have other android apps running.
There is a logic about this. I vote yes.

I've found that if you use a launcher - eg. GO Launcher EX, free version from Google Play Store - then when you restart the "Android layer" by tapping on the GO Launcher EX app, you'll find that all the Android apps are still running (including the app that you last exited, eg. Skype).
