It's more than a thoughtful gesture, its the basis of an economic system that no longer needs the shackles of copyright. I put a paypal donation button in my story when I uploaded it to feedbooks. When I get around to writing my book I'll do the same and then spend all my time on marketing and distribution. Not everyone has paypal or a way to easily transfer funds electronically, but I imagine a good portion of those who write ebooks do, and in the future this portion will only increase.
Also, this gets rid of the need for DRM.
