[theme-reviewers] Front Page Implementation

[Stephen Cui]

Thanks for the link. I read and have the following conclusion.

- The theme has to display blog index if setting is "posts"
- The static page can only be displayed if setting is 'page' (static page).

In other words, implementing front-page.php has not much meaning.
