Which is a great idea but impossible to implement. The seller can simply visit eBay as a guest or under a second account to view the feedback - and I guarantee you all regular sellers would do so.

eBay's entire feedback and buyer protection system was based on a naive college boy's idea of fair play. They've been patching it ever since, to no one's satisfaction except those who have learned to exploit the current loopholes. They should have thrown the entire system out and rebuilt it around one more secure and even-handed a long time ago.
