Comment(by Frumph):

 I see alot of sites including my own that set specific amounts of posts on
 the home page.   Say for example I  only want 3 posts on my home page,
 then whatever archive page or even search page comes up that same # that
 was set, 3 will show in there on those as well.

 Its a little ridiculous not being able to separate the two, most people
 might want or have themes that show alot less in their search and archive
 due to the_excerpt being used which shows less of the content.  I set mine
 at 10, and 3-5 on the home page.   Quite a few comicpress sites set just
 1-2 posts on the homepage, specifically pvponline.com, theaterhopper.com
 and many more, and I mean *ALOT* more, not just 10's but even 100's
 utilize a separation, although we have it hardcoded into our theme/plugin
 it would be beneficial to have it hardcoded into the core.
