Yes, to improve Github Sponsors is one of the core ideas of the project. We already integrated it in our "Sponsor Button". Do you see other possibilities to improve that? Without the help of GitHub I don't see any chance.

As far as I know gh sponsors allows to assign a money pool to a project and thought this could be a potential input source.
