Comment (by ryan):

 The toolbar was designed for menus that fly open on mouse over. The home
 icon has a submenu with just one item, Visit Site. This single item menu
 was added way back when to help document that the site name was a view
 site link. This was before the Home icon existed, IIRC, and folks had
 trouble finding view/visit site without some help. So, the site name
 toolbar item gained a menu with a lonely Visit Site link that would flash
 up when you ran your mouse over the toolbar. Discoverability was somewhat
 improved. Given that mouse over doesn't apply to touch devices and that we
 now have a big touchable home icon, perhaps Visit Site could be retired
 from the home menu, at least for touch devices. The home icon would become
 single tap, like the comment icon.
