I haven't found a users promise in a market comment to be reliable. "I'd rate it five stars if it only did X". Trouble is, it might already do X. If not, you still can't count on the user coming back to update their comments when feature X arrives. Many outdated comments are still there a year later. Like you, I have six million feature requests (okay, that's an approximation), and would rather give priority to those who ask nicely than those who believe their pet feature is the center of your universe.
