Well, we could add something like $wp_no_redirection, which if set
before including wp-blog-header would turn off the redirection checks
for you calorie counters out there.  However, my brief profiling showed
no performance hit.  What I'll probably add is an is_home() check at the
top.  Since loading the home page is the most common case, we'll check
it first and then no-op.

if (is_home()) {
  // Do nothing, just fall through.
} else if (...) {
...
}

When loading the front page, the added cost would merely be the call to
is_home().
