My suggestion:

	$pageRenderer->addMetaTag($name, $content, $scheme = '', $httpEquiv =
'', $otherAttributes = array());

As name="" and content="" are the most commonly used attributes for a
meta tag. $scheme is the next most common one (see dublin core
definitions) and $httpEquiv as the last common attribute. In
$otherAttributes on could have even other stuff (like "lang=", "id=" or
other common XHTML attributes).

As addMetaTag() has been public since 4.3, it has to have a different
name or the same method has to cope with both old (only one parametr)
and new way (e.g. make $content also optional and if $content=='', use
$name as the whole meta tag, and log to deprecation log).

Then have a addRobots helper which can be used by the template.php for
the backend:

function addRobots($content='noindex,norobots') {
	$this->addMetaTag('robots', $content);
}

Cheers,
Ernesto
