I doubt they'd even release even a basic list of how the disapproval system works or what it checks. The more detail they provide the more they open up the system to more abuse.
The best you can do is manage whatever system your building to the best of your ability, and make sure you've got policies in place to cover yourself. You can't guarantee everything is going to go smoothly when it relies on Google and the policies of Google Base. I've been there and having an agreement in place and making sure both sides know how it works is important.
