** Description changed:

  On left, I see software names. On right, I see software stars. As I move
  my head or my eye ball from left to right, I see white background above
  and below, but I have to go horizontally and I find matching a
  software's name with the software's stars hard.

- alternating-row-colors-for-tables
  
  1. visit a big category listing
  2. skip to a software about in the middle
  3. move your eye ball from left to right, white background won't help, match 
the name with the stars
  expected:
  I know what stars belong to what name
  actual:
  it's hard to match stars with name
+ 
+ <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter#software-list-view>: "In “All
+ Software” and “Installed”, the titles of items with ratings should be
+ followed by stars for the average rating, and the number of ratings in
+ brackets. If the width of those three things is greater than the width
+ of the list, the stars and number should together be flush at the
+ trailing end of the row, while the title is ellipsized at its end.
+ (Previously the stars were always flush at the trailing end, making it
+ difficult to see which rating belonged to which item. Moving them next
+ to the title means stars are not aligned for different rows, but that
+ matters little, because the ratings will much more often be used for
+ sorting than for direct comparison.)"
