Since I have no trouble with my current install (via Fink), I'm not 
sure it would make much difference to me personally.
However, I would have a SIGNIFICANTLY easier time "selling" Lilypond to 
other (new) users if there were a "standard" installation process, so 
my answer is a resounding "YES"!!

Do you mean a one-time "registration", or to be paid every version, or 
a "sponsorship" for the continued preparation of said binaries, or...?

Cheers,
