Feature Request: Improve Rating Function

Add ability to rate a receiving peer if a channel close is detected.

In a recent triangle swap I was node "B". 
Node "A" closed early to both "B" and "C". 
Node "C" adjusted their rating to negative I assume because they did not understand their rating is for the node that opened to them. 

I have been in similar situations as "C" in other swaps where the peer I opened too closed early and there is no way of rating them.
Obviously not a big deal, but it would be a nice function.

Or alternatively, add a notice when changing your rating to indicate what peer is receiving the rating. 

Thanks,

Just a comment on the closing too early. For normal closures easy - you can see who triggered the closure.
Due to automatic forced close it is not always that easy to decide which party has caused the issue. Yes you can see which node did the auto-close but it could be since the partner node was offline / instable while transactions are running. Then the "guilty" node is not the one who did the closure but the node being instable.
 ... but maybe I did not fully understand all the forced closure mechanisms.
