Aggressive nobbies on the front tire: Do they matter?

Ok so I'm hearing the Tusk DSport everyone talks about seems to be far more off road oriented. Where does the Kenda Trackmaster 2 fall on the scale from there? Better or worse for street? Basically I want to not be at full adrenaline if I'm caught in the rain, but I'd really like to be able to feel confident on gravel or dirt the few times I can get out there. I know, this is the dilemma of the dual sport rider.

Just for giggles, does anyone know of something leaning the opposite way, like a really good street tire that can still keep you alive on a gravel or dirt road? I don't have plans to go supermoto but just was wondering what the other side of the coin would look like. I really have zero clue about anything tire related, if that isn't apparent.
