Is it really necessary to have lots of thumbs down for those applications?

Since you have already voted them down, why do they need more for the same reasons?

Is there a way to turn a single thumb down into a blocker thing? For instance, checkboxs for "not optified", "no bugtracker", etc would block the application until those issues were resolved. Thumbs up and down would go for other subjective stuff...
Good point. Yes, it is necessary: the system can't remove a package until it reaches 10 thumbs down (actually not just ten, but a -10 ranking, so even 10 thumbs up and 20 thumbs down, etc...), so in order to clean the queue we need to obtain those thumbs. That's all we can do, actually.
