That is true, the front page theme is not designed to be used as a
weblog itself. It is designed only as an aggregation of the other
weblogs on the site.

But, if you understand the Roller template system you could create a
new front-page theme that supports aggregation and also supports
display of single entries from the front-page blog itself.
