That would be super if the only thing they were rating was the download experience. These votes are supposed to come after testing the application to ensure:

1. [ ] Bug database exist.
2. [ ] Licensing ok.
3. [ ] No illegal/dubious content.
4. [ ] Working provided features.
5. [ ] No missing announced features.
6. [ ] Optification ok.
7. [ ] No performance problems.
8. [ ] No power management issues.
9. [ ] No known security risks.

It takes some dedication, some effort to do it right but the result should be applications that get released to default enabled repositories that are ready for prime time.

I do not argue with your first statement, the backlog of applications is a good indication that something is not working right. I wish I had the answer.
