Bug Description

Not all devices can call. All devices have Dialer.

It is just a dead weight app for the non-telephony apps out there (ie grouper)

Given that we have only one rootfs two options seem to come into play:

Add an X-Touch-Factor=phone and unity8 (or whatever underlying component) not show it if a specific ro build property is set to either phone, tablet, desktop

Convert the apps to click and add them through customization.
