There are two approaches:
- allow the bot to ignore the nobots as it was explicitely requested to do something so there is an implicit allow.
- let the bot honor the nobots in a polite way.
Discussed briefly with Frank Geerlings and decided the way with the least resistance is to have the bot honor nobots. It should however at least logged, so when questions come it is clear what is happening.
