[wp-testers] Archive of pages uses home.php template

Hi,

Think I just came across a bug.

Running the following query from the location bar will produce a list of
all pages on a site: ?post_type=page. In the event that the theme has a
home.php template, this template will be used to display the archive. I
believe that home.php is intended to be used only when the "Blog" is being
queried (posts with a post_type of "post" with no modifiers). All custom
post types fall back to index.php if there is no dedicated template
however, pages are somehow triggering home.php.

I have also tested with an archive-page.php template, but home.php always
seems to be used when multiple pages are queried by post_type.

Please let me know your thoughts!

-Mike
