For now, we can keep the follow plugin as is. I do not see an advantage to separating it out at this point in time. We will do a little bit of extra work (tracking follows twice), but there are much higher priorities at the moment.
Sounds good. As a partial workaround I'm using follow-start-feeds = 2000000000
to ignore feeds themselves, but I assume tracking of follows has non-trivial overhead.

Not sure I understand; rep doesn't depend on follow status.
We will be tracking follows in hivemind and steemd.
hivemind can supplant nearly all functionality of the
tags
andfollow
plugins, except for rep score. I suspect it's a relatively cheap computation compared to the rest of thefollow
plugin, so it would be convenient if it was separated out.
