This is true. On most other mobile platforms the application will be 
deactivated, then suspended, then killed. On Sailfish OS, because it is a true 
multitasking environment, the application stays fully alive. What we're trying 
to do is to release as much of the application as possible behind the 
application's back. The only affected case is when the QML application relies 
on OpenGL resources being retained between hide and show.
