We know this can be difficult for our users without credit cards and users from outside the US

i wonder if it would be possible/useful to have, like, proxy-purchasers? if person the first wanted to purchase some DW points, they could pay person the second via paypal (or other mutually agreed upon means), then person the second buys the points and transfers them to person the first. everybody wins!

it's kind of messy, i admit, and there's the whole "giving your money to a stranger" aspect. but it might be useful to have it sort of semi-official? i am writing things in question form because i really don't know?

it's just that i remember what it was like when there was no australian paypal. i would like to prevent others from experiencing that same fiscal horror! (also i get frequent flyer points on my credit card, so it's not entirely altruistic on my part.)
