Thanks for this reply, Gunnar. I find the label on this button All a bit 
confusing, but your explanation sounds reasonable. When I compare it 
with the "All software" button in USC, I must confess that you also land 
on the main page. The only difference is that in USC there is a submenu 
next to the All software button where you can choose between Ubuntu, 
Canonical Partners and Shopping.
Personally, I find USC better than gnome-software, but in Xenial we have 
no choice.

On our manual list I got the following answer:

   Not sure it's a bug: clicking All is the only way to go back to the 
home page when you're in the Installed or in the Updates pages.
