There are many modules that are very similar in function, yet different in usability, workability, and cleanliness of code. It would be nice to be able to create a 'review' which references two different modules, comparing on contrasting both (or more than 2 even).
And thanks yet again for a wonderful site.

Hard to implement.

This is true, but implementing a multi-module review system would basically require rewriting the whole site :)
The simple solution is just to paste in links to the other modules, optionally submitting the same review for each, with the appropriate rating.
similiar / duplicated modules list

It would be good to display similiar / duplicated modules just as a link so the user can discover the differences themselves.
Most of the time, the existence of another module which does a similiar function is not known.

I don't have any issues with duplication, just need to know which modules provide similiar functionality.

Already exists, sort of.

Every module has a list of up to 10 "related modules" displayed on the right side of the page. It's automatically generated by an algorithm I wrote, so the results aren't always perfect, but it does a decent job. The results are recalculated once a week.
