Comment (by Anariel Design):

 Although I don´t understand such a strong opposition to trying the idea of
 "commercial" link in the filter considering the "developers" link, that
 really doesn´t belong to the filter, end up there in plugin directory I´d
 like to share traffic changes in our shop as some kind of reference.

 - The day the changes were introduced traffic drop from WP.org was 80% and
 stayed at that for days
 - 3 days ago, after adding "Themes" it went up a bit, yet still 70% less
 then before the change
 - 2 days ago, after fixing the issue with directory not loading in IE it
 went up again and now we are at about 50% of the traffic we had before

 I guess you should see similar statistics as well.
 Hope this helps a bit!
