What do you think? I added a "Poll" section to the end of http://wiki.python.org/moin/PyPIComments which lists some choices that might be available in such a poll. Martin, if I understand correctly, you're proposing adding a feature where package maintainers may allow/disallow individual comments (possibly as a spam-prevention measure?), so I listed that also among the possible voting choices.
