My stupid questions...please don't troll me :)

ooookay, here goes:

So I'm running mobile build 10166 on a lumia 1520 and have a couple of questions that might have some very obvious answers....

1. On the keyboard a little round button has appeared toward the bottom left, between the z and x. What purpose does it serve? What does it do? I've toggled it a few times but it doesn't seem to do much.

2. While on the subject of the keyboard, I'd read in one of Daniel Rubino's articles that a floating or moving keyboard would be a feature in windows 10 mobile. That would be super helpful for larger phones. One handed typing on the 1520 is a nightmare. Has that feature arrived yet? If it has, how do I activate it?

3. Xbox game streaming!! Am I right in saying that my Xbox One games will stream and be playable on my Windows Devices? My Surface Pro 3, Lumia 1520 and Xbox one are totally up-to-date and I keep seeing messages about game streaming whenever I use the Xbox app but have no idea how/if/when this feature is activated. Is this live feature and if it is, how do I get it to work?

Thanks for all help in advance

I'm on 10166 on a L920...
Your point (1).. I was using Word Preview, typing merrily along and wanted to move the cursor up the paragraph... so, I used the "little button".... it works !!!

Another useful feature for one handed use on the larger phones is the ability to bring the top of the screen down.

Long press the Windows button and you'll see the screen jump down halfway, letting you reach (for example), the notification icons at the top. Another long press restore full screen mode again.
