Just so I understand: Is there agreement that links to home / other pages should NOT contain the keywords in the anchor text?

I'd make them 'make sense' to users and not spammy...

Link to the 'home page' = Home
Link to the 'widgets page' = Widgets
Link to the 'contact page' = Contact

What I would Not do is:
Link to the 'home page = Home of the Best Widgets Anywhere, WidgetWorld
Link to the 'widgets page' = Fuzzy Blue, Green, Red Widgets
Link to the 'contact page' = Contact WidgetWorld
