I assume the reviewer means quantile regression.
Maybe, maybe not. See
• A Robust Alternative Based on Ranks to Least Squares in Analyzing Linear Models
• Thomas P. Hettmansperger and Joseph W. McKean
• Technometrics, Vol. 19, No. 3 (Aug., 1977), pp. 275-284
which pops out of Google 'rank regression method'
