Buy licenses and donate to your local high school.
My local high school will refuse them. The computer science classes use Geany because it “builds character” and anything that looks remotely like an IDE apparently “does too much work for students”.
This is great, I will have my accountant look into how I can do this. Thanks for the suggestion!

Excellent, excellent suggestion.
Or give the diamond supporters the ability to vote on features. That may not be something Jon and Will would want though.

That is exactly what I would avoid. Don't add any special features to it (vote for features, faster support responses) because that will take time from normal development. Just clearly state: "This software cost x$. And if you love it so much that you would pay double the price then you are free to do so."
I am not even talking about adding some special features, just enable people to pay more than the normal price and perhaps just add a nice 'Thanks for your extra support' badge to the 'Info' menu.
