Comment (by bradyvercher):

 Nice job, @pento!

 I made a few tweaks in [attachment:37974.9.diff] to handle changes to the
 `page_on_front` setting. It:

 * Automatically prepends the front page as a section whenever
 `page_on_front` is changed. Nothing happens if the selected page is
 already a section.
 * Refreshes the list of sections when changing `page_on_front` to prevent
 the front page from being deleted from the list.
 * Fixes the logic for when the sections control should be visible
 (`show_on_front` should be `page` and a page actually needs to be selected
 for `page_on_front`).

 I appreciate your recommendations, @celloexpressions. I'll make a
 concerted effort to address some of the things you mention and work on
 drafting up a more detailed response.
