I would also enjoy having this feature available as my tarsnap account
is bound to be forgotten by the time it's actually relevant to refill
my account.
Having a monthly fill to a set amount X makes the most sense to me.
It'd allow me to set my own buffer and i'd be able to see any change
in the rates, thus i'd be able to detect any problems before they
become too big. I also don't run the risk of getting a large withdraw
from my account if something went really wrong.

Already on my to-do list, possibly in combination with directly
accepting credit cards instead of having those go via paypal. But
since the topic has come up, I'm interested in hearing from people on
the list about this: 1. Would you use this, or do you prefer to log
in and manually deposit funds? (Whatever happens, it's going to be
optional.) 2. Would you prefer it to be structured? "Charge my card
$X whenever my account balance falls below $Y"? "On the first day of
each month, charge my card enough to bring my balance up to $X"?
