I have suggested a solution for this problem before on IRC, but here it is:

Have an app that:

- Lists apps that need votes (i.e. apps in extras-testing)
- Allow installing that app with few clicks
- Provide way to give feedback & vote for that app

This would make app testing something you can do in a relaxed fashion
when you are passing time, and feasible also for nontechnical people.
