Change block location on page by page basis? I am working on a custom theme that's inheriting defaults from Bartik. I want to specify that the 'recent content' block should appear in the content area on the homepage, but the left sidebar on article pages.

I see how to specify a specific area for the block on a specific page, but no way to set a different area on a different page or duplicate the block. I'm thinking it might be most logical to duplicate it, so I have front-page recent content and regular recent content, since they might look a little different. But not sure how would I go about doing that?
I am assuming 'recent content' is "just" the output of a view, so, if I that is correct, you can create any numbers of blocks with that content by just going into views and clone()ing the display and thus creating another block that could then be placed wherever you want.
