Ok Scott,

So if I'm seeing things clearly, the only way to target a page *(e.g.  
the front page of the site)* or a group of pages (e.g. all item  
pages) is to control where the theme applies by specifying the URL  
pattern in the theme configuration, unless a particular type of  
metadata only displays on the page you're interested in modifying  
(e.g. item metadata on the item page).

Correct?
