$20.00 a year would be cheap compared to the cost of private medical insurance, which can easily be 100 times that much.
On the other hand "we" would theoretically only protect against a very specific type of accident under specific circumstances.
The whole idea is a bit dubious, and would probably work best if editors just formed an "association of Wikipedians" amongst themselves that had nothing to do with the foundation. They could chip in as much as they liked, and then spend it helping each other out of Wikipedia-caused mishaps. If you're not a member, you'd get no coverage.
