Rationality conjecture for bases of simply connected Seifert bundles

From papers

Let

f:L(S,(11mi)Di)f:L\to \left(S,\sum \left(1-\frac{1}{m_i}\right)D_i\right)

be a 5-dimensional Seifert bundle with LL smooth. Assume that LL is a simply connected rational homology sphere. Rationality conjecture. Then SS is a rational surface.

This conjecture is identified as the missing piece in the description of Seifert bundle structures on rational homology spheres. If true, it would impose further restrictions on the base surface SS; the source does not establish it.
