Like you, I spent some time trying to avoid this obfuscation for my 
users but had no luck -- obviously, Paypal has set it up that way on 
purpose to encourage Paypal usage.  Not nice of them especially since a 
lot of my users are from an older demographic less savvy about 
Paypal/Web and less able to notice the little link allowing them to use 
a credit card.  They get confused.

Seperately, from the recesses of my brain here's one more little "tip" 
if you adopt the plugin -- the plugin can override most any setting that 
you can set on the website.  So, for example, if you change your ipn 
redirect url or anything in your "profile" on the website it will have 
no effect if you've also set it in your call from the rails app.

I recently switched my site from http to https and couldn't figure out 
why PayPal kept sending my IPNs and PDTs to http even though I 
instructed https on the website.  The answer was that I had forgotten 
that I was overriding the website with my orginal call from my app.
