I always saw the mainline games as the major console entries in the series that followed the basic framework of the series. You have a new Link and Zelda and the return of Ganon. The story centers around battle for the triforce. None of these games look similar or are sequels as they are big "leaps".It being a sequel to OOT would make it a mainline game lol. I've never thought of it as anything other than a mainline game. I mean, really, why wouldn't it be?
I know Adventures of Link doesn't quite match up, but that had to do with it being the first sequel and thus had a lot of weirdness. But from A Link to the Past on, it has been the same idea for better or worse.
