Given that you can get a sample of every ebook on Amazon, and the existence of a tagging system, I could see that we buyers could agree on a tag system separating the poorly edited/formatted from the others.
An editor influence the content also. I would be pretty annoyed if I bought a book that had not gone through some filtering/editorial process. And I do not believe that comments from readers will enhance the quality of the book. It will be a nightmare having different versions of books.
