I recall I used this as a reference
http://www.androiduipatterns.com/2011/12/how-should-android-apps-look-like_16.html
and browse was positioned as a secondary item control . Maybe another

but we do not provide such functionality in core . Beyond that browse
button is easier to click on samrtphones and tablets , afaict .
