Comment (by ericlewis):

 Replying to [comment:3 paulwilde]:
 > The label for the homepage setting in options-reading.php is referenced
 as "Front page", so deprecating is_front_page() seems inconsistent with
 the admin.

 > These labels would also need to be changed to be consistent with these
 changes.

 Totally. We should refer to this as "homepage" - front page is a
 WordPress-ism (or perhaps [http://www.wikiwand.com/en/Microsoft_FrontPage
 Microsoft-ism]), game to remove it from our lexicon completely.
