(Avoiding the "Opinion" status, as it's more confusing than useful.)

I know it's not the job of a bug reporter to suggest a solution for a
problem. However, I'm marking this Incomplete in the absence of any
evidence that it's possible for the wording to be clearer than it is
now. If you have any suggestions, please do post them.

** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu)
       Status: Opinion => Incomplete

Title:
  Finding a review "useful" is meaningless

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  When looking at reviews in the Software Centre then most people will
  use the "useful" option to say whether they agree what the reviewer's
  said.

  It would be far better to call this "2 of 3 people agreed with this
  review. Did you?". I think this is how the tool is going to be used by
  the community, better to admit it from the start.
