I agree with the button, but for a different reason. When the robot is very close to and pointing straight at an object that you want to drive up to, it might in some cases be more intuitive and accurate to push the joystick straight forward.
As for the gyro losing calibration, I suggest a second button you can use to re-calibrate the gyro. Rotate the robot to the zero degree orientation and momentarily press the button to tell the gyro "here, this is zero degrees".
