Oh yes, I have a few wdgets out there and most of the 1 stars I get
are because it "won't open."  Some of my most recent and memorable
comments I have received are: "Gay" (1 star),  "Crap.  Uninstalled" (1
star)   But my favourite are people that ignore that it does exactly
what it claims to and regardless write something like "Would be better
if it prepared my lunch and predicted winning lotto numbers" (1 star)

I've put a lot of thought into alternative schemes or modifications
that Google could use for the market rating scheme.  I'm leaning
towards other users being able to moderate down the weight of a "crap"
1 star rating.
