I don't think this makes much sense.  How many points does the one then 
subsequently reviewing that the package was reviewed properly have to add?  
Who verifies that the reviewer of the review of the package did his job 
thoroughly enough?  Etc.

If the problem is bad reviews, then the bar for reviewers needs to be raised.  
IMO requiring people to post some amount of (probably copy-pasteable) 
comments is not the correct fix.
