Should Homes Be Given Extra Protection From Eminent Domain?

I was facing a grading deadline and missed this when it came out, but Eduardo Penalver and Ilya Somin had an interesting blogospheric discussion about whether homes should be given additional protection from eminent domain relative to other types of property.  Ilya's last post on the subject contains links to the earlier portions.  I have supported this sort of disparate treatment before (here and here), as have a number of other property scholars.  It is interesting to see some real-world application.
