Mikhail, Thanks for pointing this out.
I'd say that ticket is in distinct need of some examples or use-cases. It is extremely hard to work out what "scoring" actually means. What is used to score what? It'd be great to see some examples and some explanations as to what effect those examples have on scoring. I'll dig into that patch to see if I can work it out.
