I dunno, really, I guess I'm kinda neutral on it. I don't find it that
hard to just hit 's' (which I use for 'skip' an update I don't want to
comment on...), but hey.

Proventesters at least shouldn't file information-free 0 votes, it's in
the proven tester instructions not to. So if you see anyone doing it,
ask them nicely not to :)
