Need ability to restrict parent page types to "root" page
See original GitHub issueI want the editor to be able to add a homepage as a child of the “root” page only. Currently there’s no way to do that.
The workaround is to use a fixture (or migration) to make the homepage, then restrict its subpage and parent page types to []. But that doesn’t stop the editor from deleting the homepage. If they do, they can’t add one back again.
The correct behavior should be to set parent_page_types = ['root'] (maybe a special string) to restrict pages from only being able to be added to the root page.

I think
parent_page_types = ['wagtailcore.Page']will also work, as the root is the only valid instance of the bare Page class.But yep, we ought to come up with something better… https://github.com/torchbox/wagtail/pull/1736#issuecomment-160944662 has a good suggestion for implementing this.
This should also be added to the docs 📖
