+1 to both. Case in point: Bitcoin is supposed to be an easy way to donate, but getting one's hands on Bitcoins requires jumping a bunch of hurdles if one doesn't know the right people. Not sure whether the conversion rates have stablized or not, but the fluctuations there also present a problem. Since PayEnemy is kind of a last resort, it sure would be awesome to have an easy way to donate to developers.
