 Hello!
 We'd like to allow our users to submit WooCommerce ratings without being
 forced to write some text. Some people find this intimidating (they like
 or dislike the product, but can't or won't say why).
 I've attached a patch that adds a filter immediately before the empty
 string check in wp-comments-post.php. This allows us to hook in and change
 an empty field to something simple (say, a single space) while maintaining
 WooCommerce's rating metadata. Is this reasonable for core?
