 > Unless I'm missing something, this is impossible to accomplish without
 directly editing Wordpress's .htaccess file.  Because permalinks allow for
 the static directory though, it should know how to handle them.

 No, you just need something like a custom page template, assigned to the
 /blog/ page:

 {{{
 <?php
 /*
 Template Name: Redirect to Home
 */

 wp_redirect(get_bloginfo('url'));
 exit;
 }}}
