Add option to disable meta keywords

[ren!]

Hey there,

This thread: http://get-simple.info/forums/showthread.php?tid=3693
brought up sth. interesting in regards of meta keywords

... meta keywords are no longer used by any search engines, time to leave them out of Page Options?

They are not used for ranking, keywords are indeed still used and relevant for other things including internal tags.

Timbows idea has good reasons but aims at the wrong target

11:15, restate my assumptions:
1. meta="Keywords" are no ranking factor for search engines.
2. get_header() delivers meta="keywords" when Tags/keywords is not empty
3. Not using 'get_header' can lead to problems with certain plugiins
3. Inserting Tags in Page Options can make sense for internal Plugins or theme-functions
4. Some webcatalogues read out the meta-keywords to categorize listed websites, there might be other good reasons to have individual, specific and relevant meta keywords for each page
5. Displaying keywords in meta "keywords" which are used for template/plugin functionality, might be bad. seeing something like: <meta name="keywords" content="_special_superDuperPage" /> sucks.
btw. I thought Tags with underscore are not used for meta-keywords...

----

I propose to let the webmaster decide if he wants meta="keywords" be displayed when get_header is called.

How about sth like this in GSCONFIG:
# Uncomment to never display <meta name="keywords" />
# define('GSNOKEYWORDSINHEAD',true);

What you say?
good? bad? ugly???
