nofollow is just bad citizenship in this case - Lw has a lot of google juice and links in comments tend to be soaked in semantical goodness.

Yep. And even then, the simple solution is to only nofollow comments with negative karma. (There should be enough people reading the /comments feed to catch spam going to old posts, I would think.)

Brilliant - I wonder if anyone does that sort of thing (I'd guess not, since there aren't a lot of places with this sort of comment moderation)

On Hacker News all comments are nofollow but submissions above a certain point threshold are follow. Same on Reddit.

That would work.
