Add nofollow option for links #13542

On behalf of the hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people who make money with their website with affiliate programs and sponsored content:

Please, please, pretty please, make it easy for us to add the nofollow rel attribute to a link.

I honestly don't know why it isn't a part of WordPress core. Every WordPress commercial I see lately is about having your business on WordPress, yet WP is making it difficult for business owners to be compliant with Google's guidelines on paid/affiliate links. We shouldn't have to add yet another plugin to handle something so basic and widely used.

Just have a checkbox or similar (like open to new window) to add the nofollow rel attribute for a link.

Thank you for your consideration.
