RequestUseSfdc entry in Contact layout metadata: What is it for?
Recently I've noticed when retrieving the metadata (through the Force.com Migration Tool) for our Contact page layouts in Prod the following entry:
<excludeButtons>RequestUseSfdc</excludeButtons>
As near as I can tell this does not correlate to any button listed in the Page Layout Editor.
The other odd thing is that this entry is not included when retrieving the same layout(s) from our sandbox instance.
Anyone know what this entry is for?
Actually <excludeButtons>RequestUseSfdc</excludeButtons> will exclude the “RequestUseSfdc” button from this layout.

Hope this helps.
But there is no such button (as I stated in my initial post "As near as I can tell this does not correlate to any button listed in the Page Layout Editor").
