 > How about they just write a internal note?

 '''It's not apparent at a glance what plugins are currently being
 reviewed.'''
 You'd have to visit the edit page for any/all plugin(s) in the queue
 depending on what you wanted to do or know. If I wanted to review a
 plugin, I wouldn't relish going down the list and loading each post one by
 one until I found a plugin that doesn't have a reviewer. (Even if you can
 tell if a post has internal notes or not, you can't infer a reviewer has
 claimed it without reading the internal notes of a plugin. And you'd have
 to read them ''all'', as someone could claim it but after a number of
 other notes decide not to proceed with the review.)

 '''It's not easy to determine which plugins are specifically assigned to
 me (or anyone else).'''
 Maybe I've forgotten which one(s) I said I'd review. Or I got sick and
 asked someone else to take on my reviews. Or a reviewer quit or got kicked
 off the review team and now their claimed plugins need to be
 unclaimed/reassigned.

 '''It's not easy to programmatically determine the reviewer for a
 plugin.'''
 Thus you can't really do any filtering (e.g. list only the plugins I'm
 reviewing, list only plugins needing a reviewer, list all plugins reviewed
 by UserX and approved (perhaps they all warrant a re-review), etc) or
 stats (percentage of plugin queue currently under review; number of
 reviews Ipstenu has performed last month) or analysis.
