Remarks
Make an Intent for the main activity of an application, without specifying a specific activity to run but giving a selector to find the activity. This results in a final Intent that is structured the same as when the application is launched from Home. For anything else that wants to launch an application in the same way, it is important that they use an Intent structured the same way, and can use this function to ensure this is the case.
The returned Intent has #ACTION_MAIN as its action, and includes the category #CATEGORY_LAUNCHER. This does <em>not</em> have #FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK set, though typically you will want to do that through #addFlags(int) on the returned Intent.
