<upd_detl>I think [rK] is appropriate here. 
A user on the jisho forum pointed out that it'd be helpful to note the "の～ after nouns" for this usage, I think it's good to have.
I will align relevant entries later, given this edit being approved.</upd_detl>
<upd_refs>In the BCCWJ,｛の；よう；だ｝gets 1643 hits compared to a measly 22 for｛の；様[ヨウ]；だ｝, which is a ratio of 99.9867% to 0.0133%
It's the same situation with the other, smaller, corpora.

<upd_detl>There have been a select few instances where it's been considered recently IIRC, but I don't really think it changes much here.
I'm not one to be stingy with notes anyway.
It's probably more reasonable in entries like the revised て one.</upd_detl>
