Comment:

 20 months later, I'm with westi. XFN is a defined (if old) standard, and
 nofollow shouldn't conflate that. Also , nofollow kind of defeats the
 purpose of a blogroll, so it doesn't make sense to add more features when
 the link manager already has too much bloat. The attribute is doable via
 the API or a plugin, good enough for me.
