We already have a link to the donations page buried deep in the "About
KDE" dialog under the "Support KDE" tab where no-one ever sees it.  A
Help menu item for "Donate to KDE..." that pops up a dialog explaining
why would be far more visible, but easily disabled by distros who
object.  We could also include a "Donate to KDE" tip in every
KTipDatabase and ensure it's the first tip shown by default on an apps
first run.  As an admin note, whenever we do add a donate link
anywhere we should make it unique so that we can track how successful
each channel is.

As a datapoint, and not something most apps will want to do... Adding a splash screen with a donation link to the development build of Krita meant getting three out-of-the-blue donations a week more than the zero I had before. No huge numbers, but then, Krita still is small compared to other apps.
