Hi Ernesto,
I think it's not a good idea to let extension authors have any control
over ratings, as it is much too tempting for the *bad* authors to simply
reset all votes (remember they don't get many positive ones, so there is
no loss for them). Moreover, it would be unfair to the people who maybe
put some effort into their ratings to be simply deleted by the ext author.
Greetings,
Michael
