Preach IT!!!!  I'm glad we can now mark ratings as spam but they still
need to expire.  I've released something like 20+ updates to my
application and I am still dinged for version 1.0 because a user rated
me 1 star and said "needs this feature".  I've since added that
feature but I'm still dinged for it.
