Actually I do not think you would want that, especially as a moderator (I
am assuming that you would be self-appointing to be one).  What will you
do to help a "broad, vague, and infeasible idea" forward when it gets many
votes?

That is why I prefer a system that requires substance when voicing an
opinion ("Yes I like the solution because in addition to the original
problem description it will also help this use case"), and it also is the
reason I tend to ignore e-mails that only say "+1" on this list.

In other words, this is not a democracy, and you do not necessarily want a
democracy that is prone to populism.
