Is there any pros or cons associated with using nofollow on internal links (such as links to administrative pages)?

If you have the time and skills to 'channel page rank' within your site, then the use of nofollow links might be a useful tool.
For most people, it would be hit and miss (knowing only four month old page rank!), and a doubtful use of time and energy.
That time could (for most sites) achieve the same benefit and more if used to create an efficient and user-friendly internal navigation.

According to Matt cutts : The nofollow attribute is just a mechanism that gives webmasters the ability to modify PageRank flow at link-level granularity.There's no stigma to using nofollow, even on your own internal links; for Google, nofollow'ed links are dropped out of our link graph; we don't even use such links for discovery. By the way, the nofollow meta tag does that same thing, but at a page level.
