 Hi,

 Just started playing around with the new embed feature and I really like
 it. However I discovered that it is not possible to embed the front page
 of a blog when it is set to a static page.

 {{{ WP_oEmbed_Controller::get_item }}} does not find the post id for the
 static front page. It also seems like {{{WP_Query}}} cannot handle this
 situation either as any request using {{{?embed=true}}} to the front page
 returns the blog archive page instead without using the embed template.

 I guess embedding single posts/pages is the use case for the majority of
 users, but having it work for front pages would also be a nice way for
 promoting individual blogs on a multisite install.
