$SearchPatterns['normal'][] = FmtPageName('!^$FullName$!', $pagename);
$SearchPatterns['normal'][] = '!^Main.(SideBar|SearchWiki)$!';

At the moment I don't have an easy way to exclude pages that are
redirects, but it's an excellent idea.  I'll see if I can include
that into the overall scheme of things (it's probably worth adding
a note about this to PITS).  

Perhaps you can exclude most redirects with something like:

   (:pagelist group=Profiles list=normal -"(:redirect " :)
