[Interest] Bounties?

A slightly other thought. I think Digia could also put out bounties on successful bug fixes.
For them it could even be relatively cheap if they 'pay' in commercial licenses. IMHO a win/
win situation: For the bug fixer, who gets the commercial license, this bounty has a considerable
value. And in many cases it would cost nothing for Digia, but generated license key. My line of
thought:

I doubt that many, who could/would fix a bug, could/would buy a commercial license. Most companies,
who have commercial licenses rightfully expect Digia to fix their problems/bugs. So IMHO free 
commercial licenses should not be a big financial loss for Digia, but certainly a gain for all, when 
the interest in bug fixing is increased among the Qt using community. Such a 'reward license could
come without support.
