Re: [Usability] Allow donations for precise bugs

[Luis Villa <luis villa gmail com>]

I'll note that, for the record, I'm drastically, violently opposed to
doing this in bugzilla. Add this to bugzilla and pretty quickly the
only bugs fixed will be bounty bugs- it will totally skew the
motivations of everyone involved in the project and that would be
terribly unhealthy.
