Time for another change on feedback policy | Selling

I sincerely hope eBay will review yet another old policy about seller's feedback and showing their truly is seller protection in place. I would like to see the time period for reviewing and showing feedbacks received to less than ONE YEAR. While this isn't a major concern to me, I do think keeping negative feedbacks on for an entire year is not justified especially since eBay disallowed leaving negative feedback for buyers. (There aren't many bad buyers, but when they ARE bad....they are really bad because they are generally newer buyers who do not follow eBay guidelines for filing a return or they are buyers who never give a seller a chance to make things right even though notes are included in purchases thanking them for their purchase and telling them to contact the seller if there is any problem what-so-ever with their purchase. I have also found that these poor buyers also are not frequent buyers on eBay, so why allow that poor feedback to linger on a good seller's ratings for an entire year? Just something I have though about for a while and thought I would see if anyone agrees.
