Seriously, he should just inform people to send him feature requests and in return he'll send an quote estimation; no need to be petulant.

Yes! That's a good idea, feature and customization based Pricing. Just imagine Linus would be such a winy Rumpelstiltskin...well he is, but not a winy one ;)

The person who does the work gets paid. Each feature request could have a optional bounty against it.

If they're doing work for their own enjoyment, why should they complain?

It was about his six figure...are the others paid from that too? ;)
