 Replying to [comment:8 trick77]:
 > Btw, by looking at the original cloud tag function code I don't see a
 way there setting wp_rel_nofollow() should lead to nofollowed links.
 There's no such code called when the link is being generated.

 You would use the plugin API to add a filter.

 > filosofo: I don't think so, just have a look how PR is calculated.
 Having fewer non-essential internal links automatically inherits more page
 rank to essentially linked posts and in general, this is what everyone
 wants.

 That's not true anymore, I explained that above.
