Bug Description
* Impact
gnome-software displays only 10 reviews and doesn't give you a way to load more
* Test case
open a popular application (eg. Audacity, GIMP) in g-s and look at the reviews, there should be more than 10
* Regression potential
we load more data so the details page might be a bit slower to load
-------
Using xenial it seems there is no way to load more review? I reported that upstream but it might be a choice for them since they don't have lot of reviews on their server
That commit suggests the UI exists

There might be a need to write the backend side though

To post a comment you must log in.
The Ubuntu plugin only downloads one page of reviews (10). I didn't update this because some packages have hundreds of reivews which is likely to be slow to download or make the UI slow.
The upstream design has a button to download more (discussed this issue while designing) but this is not implemented in GNOME Software. It is non-trivial to implement.
I figured this is not a blocker and can be solved post 16.04.
If we want, we can download more than one page (e.g. 30 reviews) if the 10 seems too small.
