Hi,

this sounds good, just a few points to consider:

1) we could still perhaps consider putting some screenshot in the list, 
seeing images is still often preferred to just text
2) opening without a popup is feasible, but not currently supported by 
our GUI engine, so quite a bit of work would be
required to do that
3) totally agreed about using stars for rating and search!
