--- Comment #4 from MZMcBride <[email protected]> ---
Re-opening this for further consideration.

A few points:

* a half-decade has passed, so the caching situation may be different now;

* we might be able to do this only for logged-in users (but keep the current
behavior for IP blocks and IP range blocks); and

* on smaller sites, the performance issues shouldn't be nearly as bad, so this
may be something we can stick behind $wgMiserMode, to at least allow most wikis
to behave sanely here.

Or we could investigate doing this in client-side JavaScript.

Offering an "edit this page" tab and section edit links when we know the user
is blocked is kind of insanely bad user interface/user experience.
