Comment:

 Going to close this based on no further feedback.

 I would strongly discourage themes from adding front page options to this
 section. Make a "Front Page" or home page section for your theme instead.
 I imagine that the static front page section ''could'' eventually move to
 a core panel with more fundamental setup-type settings that are unlikely
 to be changed, such as the site identity section. It's better to keep
 theme-related options separated from fundamental core settings for this
 type of thing I think.
