>From what I understand, part of their plans is to implement that for
GitLab. I agree that we might not want to enable something like that on
Salsa, I suppose that would depend on exact details (like, if it's just
something in an API as apposed to having donate button scattered all
over, then I don't think it's intrusive at all).
