Potential problems: 1) people would set up two accounts, one to look at points and one to vote (and then log into both of them on separate browsers). It would be possible to modify the site to detect this, but that would be extra work for pg. 2) It would take less than a week for a browser extension that did this automatically (putting points into a page) to be released - there's already one attempt to build a database of points with an extensions (it records the score of points of anyone who has it installed and makes that information available to others).
It's a good idea on its face, but it wouldn't work.
