Opinions for "powered lift" rating

To all,
Art Nalls (nallsaviation.com) the owner of the only flying civilian owned Harrier has completed his FAA requirements and passed his check ride. We found that the FAA has issued "powered lift" ratings to some others. Most were V-22 pilots that applied for pilot's licenses and didn't fit helo or fixed wing.
Would like to hear opinions about getting a "powered lift" rating in an aircraft other than one that is supported by only engine thrust. Which is the laymans definition of powered lift.
first airshow this weekend at Culpeper VA
