    The Android 4.1 CDD section 7.2.3 contains information on this:

    The Home, Menu and Back functions are essential to the Android
    navigation paradigm. Device implementations MUST make these functions
    available to the user at all times when running applications. These
    functions MAY be implemented via dedicated physical buttons (such as
    mechanical or capacitive touch buttons), or MAY be implemented using
    dedicated software keys, gestures, touch panel, etc. Android 4.1
    supports both implementations.
