Because comment spam, wiki spam, and blog spam have been such large
problems in the past, I prefer PmWiki's current default of rel=nofollow.
This makes more sense given that PmWiki defaults to an open editing
model (i.e., a wiki) when it is first installed.
The config already makes it possible to disable/enable rel=nofollow as
desired by setting $UrlLinkFmt:
# remove rel=nofollow
$UrlLinkFmt =
"<a class='urllink' href='\$LinkUrl' title='\$LinkAlt'>\$LinkText</a>";
