When designing anything that involves multiple people, an important
use case to consider is: What if someone is a jerk?

A reviewer usually can't predict, ahead of time, whether a particular
developer will be like that. So either you don't implement this form
of communication at all (relying instead on adjustable automatic
error-reporting recipes), *or* you implement a method of reporting and
dealing with harassment if it does occur -- and fund staff to monitor
it. Which probably means that it's not just a person-week of work.
Or we use Launchpad's already-established mechanisms for dealing with
jerks. I don't know what they are, but it hasn't been overrun by
jerks, so it must be working.
I see these sorts of worries as a sign I'm on the right track.
Building a full system for reviews and meta-reviews and bugs and
comments and whatnot is a huge job. We can't implement it from scratch
in a reasonable amount of time. Let's leverage what we do have (namely
Launchpad) to produce a functional, if imperfect, solution.

It might be a nice extra, and it sounds like *something* should
be done to improve this part of our app store... but I'm not
sure which solution would actually be best.
I'm not going for best. I'm going for good-enough and doable.
