I tend to agree but either way is fine in terms of implementation. And
sticky is of course just one example of this type of post, I suggested
another earlier "ignore on front page" and there will be more.

[Might be useful to keep the "sticky" type discussion in it's own thread
separate from the issue of being aboe to hook into datatbase calls in
wp-blog-header.]
