It's not possible to report without typing, and ratings
without the typed information as to why the user gave the
app that rating would be at best useless (Why is this
silver? What doesn't work?), and at worst misleading. "False
platinums" in particular are already a big problem: users
give an app a platinum rating, but list tweaks they applied
(so it really should be gold) or things that didn't work (so
it really should be silver). Admins and maintainers need
that typed information to assess whether a rating is
correct.<br>

As a maintainer of several applications, I want to know about
improvements/regressions of all functions in those applications.
Thus, I ask those who use the products I maintain to provide details
'What Works' and 'What Does Not Work' and these must be, for the
present time, in English. Sorry, but English is the "Universal"
language. The boxes, for now, should stay.<br>
<br>
There are many 'drop down' menus that it would be nice to input
Hebrew and have English populate them. Would this be a good idea?<br>
