971786 - Firefox Accounts (Activities) - Set android:excludeFromRecents on the status activity?

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Firefox Accounts, defect)

Description

[Aaron Train [:aaronmt]]

Currently on access to 'Configure Sync' a new Status activity launches. On hitting back (as the only means of exiting the status, I am taken back to Settings. On switch back to Firefox, I notice that the Status activity is lingering. 

Should this status activity exit? Should it be hidden from recents? I'm not sure why it needs to linger around afterwards.

Thoughts?

The status activity should have exited when you hit the back button. The launcher might keep the task around, with that activity as the root. Presumably you still see Nightly and Status as different entries in the task switcher?
