Okay, this is a request for the devs. Can one of

patch at

rel="nofollow" outside NS_MAIN?
We can then, having solved the uncontroversial part of the problem,
continue debating the merits of nofollow in the main namespace at leisure.
Looking at the patch, it seems to me that a better solution would handle
both NOINDEX *and* NOFOLLOW.
As Ilmari suggested, let's not complicate the issue too much.
Let's get nofollow turned off *now* (it really does seem like a
no-brainer, even for the main namespace), then worry about noindex.
