 Hello,

 Opening here for developer input. Original support topic;
 https://wordpress.org/support/topic/is-there-a-reason-two-homepages-show-
 in-menu-editor?replies=2#post-8787393

 As @girlieworks mentioned on the support topic WordPress adds an extra
 checkbox to the top of the page list for the Page that is set as your
 Static Front Page when you're creating a menu.

 In this list it appears as duplicate with the first being prefixed with
 'Home:'.

 This caused confusion initially for myself as I was setting up a small
 site where all pages were to be part of the navigation, so when I was
 building the menu I went to Pages > View All > Select All before adding,
 this resulting in my Homepage being in the menu twice. Easy enough to
 remove, but as it wasn't expected hadn't originally noticed the duplicate.

 Is that behaviour correct, or should the original entry for the Home page
 be filtered when the Static Front Page entry is added to the list?

 Thank you
