I think it could be a great solution. I've never considered it before. That said there's one sticking point for me:

Apportion payment to developers based on software use by paid users and the size of their contribution to that software.

That^ . That needs a lot more detail. If they provide solid details -- details that most can agree on -- then I will actually be on board with the solution.

Yeah, translating "size of their contribution" to a dollar amount is going to be inherently political. If they're leaving it open ended to let projects figure it out then that could go poorly...
