[theme-reviewers] An idea to improve the theme review process.

Before I start, here are my assumptions

   - *All the theme developers are capable of reviewing a WordPress theme.*
   - *Every developer wants to get his theme reviewed as early as possible.*

*My idea:*
How about giving higher priority to who review other themes? More the themes
they review, higher their theme moves in the review queue.

*Possible problems:*

A developer reviewing a theme just to get a position for his theme in the
repository may not review it with care.

*Solution 1:* We can give negative reputation to such reviewers.

Problem with this solution..
It's hard to decide whether a reviewer reviewed the theme with care or not.

*Solution 2:* Have the review reviewed.
You may say we are already having less man power, and a review of review
will slow down things further.

That's not true, If my assumptions are correct, we will be getting lot of
help.

*Note: *Tickets must be assigned randomly, they shouldn't be allowed to
choose tickets. Because, it's possible for developers to join hand's and
pass their themes through the review process.
