I would prefer that, as a technical matter, it became impossible to
redirect anything in the article namespace to anything not in the
article namespace. This includes redirects to user pages, redirects to
Wikipedia: pages, and especially interwiki redirects. The article
namespace should be self-contained and extractable, and all redirects
should be essentially "see [[articlelocation]]" links.
IMO, of course.
