 In the admin bar, an icon of a house is used next to the site name link.

 The site name link changes based on context: on the front-end, it links to
 the dashboard; in the admin interface, it links to the site's homepage.

 The house icon most readily reads "homepage" to me, so I would expect that
 clicking on this link will always bring me to my site's homepage. This is
 not the case on the front-end, and there is no clear metaphor I see
 between house icon and dashboard/admin interface.
