I'm one of those annoying one-off donators. Alas the way I have my accounts set up it means that I'd likely screw up scheduled donations and end up hitting myself with stupid bank fees.
However, if I were prompted, as I was by the appearance of the new donation button, I'd probably make a biggish one off donation on at least an annual basis. I just need reminding about it so I don't conveniently forget this stuff.
To avoid drum banging, I'd be really happy to use an opt-in automated reminder service that sent me a PM telling my it's donation time. Obviously that's a coding job for you and I have no idea of the scale of burden, but if it serves a core of people like me then it could be worth the effort. The functionality could also be extended to other scenarios as well such as subscription alerts for making entries to polo tournaments and other events. That's my suggestion for making it easier to solicit donations from awkward sods like me.
