You would need some incentive for people to donate, just a promise of continuing to get free stuff wouldn't really be enough.
What you are suggesting is like what we have now, where some people volunteer to pay for things they could easily get for free. But if it was legally sanctioned most people would just stop paying.
If you look at fully functioning shareware versus crippled trialware you'll find that more people pay for the trialware. If it's not crippled there's no incentive to pay.
