Description

@nvdaes

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Add-ons don't require subjective reviews to be included in the store, and feedback can be sent directly to authors. This makes difficult to find feedback about add-ons from other users/code reviewers, specially if an add-on seems to be OK.

Describe the solution you'd like

In the actions menu for each add-on, it should be possible to open the issue corresponding to the add-on, or a GitHub discussion, which seems to make easier to be translated into other languages thanks to a GitHub feature, so that people can informa that an add-on is right, and users can consult this knowing the reviewer who provided the feedback.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The add-ons mailing list can be used, and also reviewers may post comments on different websites, encouraging people to use the store and specific add-ons.

Additional context

I've read negative comments by people complaining about the fact that the store can not be secure since add-ons are approved automatically, thoug seems that people previously complained since when add-ons were reviewed, some of them weren't accepted or considered.
