It's shady no matter who does it, IMO, and I'm surprised that nobody working on that issue had a problem with it. I hope it was at least discussed on a mailing list or something.

It seems there were objections about ethics in another bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=787860

I'd rather see UI like:

  [I love it]                |
  [I ran into a problem]     |     [Review on Play Store]
  [I have an idea]           |
With this UI, [I love it] doesn't lead you to the play store, it just sends a signal back to Mozilla.

Alternatively, offer this UI up front:

  [Send feedback directly to Mozilla]
  [Review on Play Store]
and nest the "I love it/I had a problem/etc." behind that first option, with no redirects to the play store.
