Hey Ori,
I like the creative thinking :) For the fundraising that could indeed work
well (although I have no numbers on what percentage of domations comes from
logged in users etc), but there are also campaigns tht are quite relevant
for logged in users.

This is possibly the most annoying feature of the
Wikimedia projects at
the moment. You access a page. Then you start reading or
editing it. And
then suddenly the page jumps when a fundraising banner / central notice /
gadget / beta feature loads. So you have to start reading the page again,
or you have to find where you were editing again, or you have to undo the
change you just made since you made it in the wrong part of the page.
Or you click "edit" and it hits the banner that suddenly popped up
under your click. AAAAAAAAAAAA
One possible solution would be to exempt anyone who edits an article from
being shown a banner by means of a cookie with a suitable expiry. Since
only a tiny fraction of visitors edit, I would expect the impact on the
WMF's bottom line to be negligible.
