There are different variations of a similar idea. The implementation suggested here though, isn't my favorite since a modification in the license shouldn't really be necessary. And, lost of FOSS projects out there can't just simply relicense. So far, the best implementation I've seen is specific to Elementary OS in their distro software center. You can donate to projects directly via the store.

I truly believe that open-source developers can gain financial independence by selling supply-chain security. Disclaimer: I'm exploring this idea.

This sounds really interesting. If you ever get a chance to sit down and do a write up as to what you discover, I would love to read it.
