Can some positive feedback hurt sellers?

I was thinking today... can some positive feedback actually hurt a seller?

Suppose, for example, you get on great terms with seller X... you no longer need to pay before he ships, because he trusts you. He'll go out of his way to help, more-so than if you had bid for the first time...

If you put that in feedback, would others assume a seller will do that for anyone, although it's dumb to do it unless trust has been built?

Your opinions?

I would never place that type of information in feedback. That's between me and the seller. To do so, IMO, would dishonor the relationship we've built.

I have, as a buyer, have sometimes asked a seller not to leave feedback.

Trust is something "you" earn. Why would you cause the seller that kind of grief by putting it in your feedback?
