I like this idea.
Let's start with GRA. Your step next, I'll add.
@gasyoun Could you enlist the reviews for all dictionaries here? We can somehow integrate them later somewhere.
Reviewed Work: V. S. Apte's The Practical Sanskrit-English Dictionary by P. K. Gode, C. G. Karve Review by: Ludwik Sternbach Journal of the American Oriental Society Vol. 80, No. 1 (Jan. - Mar., 1960), pp. 59-63 Published by: American Oriental Society DOI: 10.2307/595270 Stable URL: http://www.jstor.org/stable/595270 Page Count: 5

This indeed is a good piece of information to add.
I only wish all those references could be given here in toto (pdf or text), but unfortunately many such are under CR; though just the references would give the interested people the pointers where to go further, if they wish to get them.
I would suggest adding the opinion pages given (somewhere with)in the works (dictionaries) themselves as reviews & opinions; these are the collections as collected/selected by the respective authors/compilers/publishers. (We can see such pages in SKD, for example.) We have collected all such information in our main Telugu project (and as usual not given out publicly!), looking at various prints and editions of the books (and also the prefaces in each reprint/edition- if newly added).
I've got reviews and scans of articles about particular dictionaries. Like http://www.sanskrit-lexicon.uni-koeln.de/scans/GRAScan/2014/web/index.php could have B L A M D R instead of B L A M D where R could stand for R[eviews] with https://github.com/sanskrit-lexicon/GRA/blob/master/Delbruck-Grassmann1873.pdf as a starting point. At least a scan. A text one day. Or if Jim would want to make it invisible to store it at http://www.sanskrit-lexicon.uni-koeln.de/scans/csldoc/dictionaries/index.html - I have a few papers about MW and even more might come. I'm collecting printed opinions about the listed and unlisted Sanskrit dictionaries in German, English and Russian languages.
