make it possible to "star" suggestions
planned
I would like to be able to "star" certain suggestions that I want to remember (if I have no more votes but want to keep tabs on interesting suggestions).

That is an awesome idea! Since I don't have enough votes to vote on all of the suggestions I'm interested in...

What is the purpose of limiting the votes? We aren't limited in what we can "Digg". The problem with this approach is that you are cutting off the "long tail". The "Long Tail" of people who spend inordinate amounts of time in certain spaces is what powers some many communities. Many others are just lurkers.

I suggest limiting the number of votes you are allowed to assign per idea, but allowing people to vote on as many ideas as they like.

Limiting the votes seems like a good idea to me. That forces people to be economical in applying votes. The comment about the "Long Tail" is interesting. I'd say that's a feature! Under the current setup you can identify the 20% of features that people are likely to use. The "long tail" can actually play out in time or as more people join, but meanwhile you've got useful features.
