It's going to be hugely, and I mean HUGELY, inefficient to edit people
you personally don't like out of the public feeds. It will mean that we
have to throw out all the caching and rebuild the public stream for each
and every different user. If you want to read notices only by people you
like, subscribe to the people you find interesting, and read your inbox.
That's what subscriptions are for.

THAT SAID, I'd like to add a feature to Identi.ca to remove people on a
sitewide basis from the public streams (public, tags) who abuse them.
It'd either be a flag on their user account that says they're abusive,
or an array of deprecated users in the config file. Probably the second
would be easiest to implement.

These people could still post whatever they wanted, and others could
subscribe to them, but it just wouldn't show up in the public feeds.
