[Q] Remap long press back key to ICS recent apps in stock 4.0.3

Instead of long press home button to get ICS recent apps, is there an app which can remap long press back key to ICS recent apps?

[Q] Remap/change hardware button functionality?

Hi, I found some old threads about changing keylayout and stuff, but nothing recent (you know: since JB) and I just got the phone yesterday.
Right now, the phone does this:
Menu button press: menu
Menu button hold: Google Now (search)
Home button press: Home
Home button double-press: SVoice
Home button hold: Recent Apps
Back button press: Back
And I would like it to do this:
Menu button press: Recent Apps
Menu button hold: menu
Home button press: Home
Home button double-press: nothing
Home button hold: Google Now (search)
Back button press: Back
I'm kinda surprised that I can't find an app for this, as it really just seems like I'd be changing a little bit of text inside some config/layout files.
FWIW, I'm running completely stock but I rooted it yesterday. No ROM has been flashed, and I would love to keep it that way. Any help is greatly appreciated!

My thread got pushed off the front page faster than I could find Google Now on my new phone.

Thanx - nice find!
It still doesn't accomplish what I want, though... And I am a HUGE proponent of keeping things simple. My least favorite thing about Windows 8? All those muthereffin gestures that you need to memorize. It's not simple, and you have to completely relearn how to use an OS that you've been using for ages.

[Q] [I9001] add screenshot to stock-power-menu in gingerbread

Hey,
I currently use I9001XXKQ1_I9001XXKPI_I9001DBTKP1_HOME firmware for my SGS+ and I was wondering if I couls somehow either
add Screenshot to the Power-Menu like in ICS and JB
remap the screenshot
currently it is done by pressing the back-softkey and the homebutton. unfortunately the app reacts to them so I go back or exit the app.
Maybe it would be possible to map the action to volume down and power or so.
Best thing would still be in the Power-Menu since that effects no apps and is guaranteed to work.

[Q][XU] Back button --> Kill App

In CM9, The back button can be used to kill apps on long press,
Is it possible by some dev to incorporate to stock? Pls, I dont think swiping away apps while long pressing home is the same thing,
It would be really cool if this was possible, long press back button, kill app.
