Feature request: Set Launchbox as Homescreen

I think this would be a great optional feature for people who use their android device primarily for games. It would allow people to be able able to jump into the Launchbox menu right after starting or unlocking the screen.

I hate to be THAT guy but please don't make Launchbox android a home launcher... I tested a bunch of frontends (basically all of the ones available on Android) and I bought and settled on Launchbox not only for its filters abilities but mainly for the fact that it wasn't a home launcher and that because of that it was compatible with Samsung Dex (Samsung Dex is used to output video to a TV, a huge feature for emulation). Samsung dex is a launcher on its own and is entirely incompatible with any app that serves as a launcher. Quite a few android frontends are incompatible with it because of it and it sucks a lot for Samsung users. Please keep Launchbox not as a home launcher in the future so it keeps being compatible with Dex. Sorry about this post OP but that feature would completely break Launchbox for me.

To the OP or anyone interested in that feature, there are some apps on the playstore that do not require root and can open any app you select as soon as the phone or tablet is booted. It's not entirely the same as being a home launcher but it's halfway there.
