In reply to WP Compass.

Personally I think its kind of a wasted effort. The harsh nasty code mostly does not sit inside of the public WP plugin repository (although there are certainly quite a lot examples of "code crime on humankind"), but in major commercial marketplaces like ThemeFactory.

Getting the management of THOSE places on-board would be of much more use; it would give us, ie. the developers and designers who work with WP on a daily basis, a much better tool, an indicator of how crappy or tidy a code base of a specific theme or plugin ACTUALLY is. And thus saving hundreds of thousands of hours which would normally go into building workarounds for ugly code issues, short-sighted closing of APIs, and so on.
