And I'm back, here to clog up your issue tracker.
Would be nice to have an 'application' step for a member to become a vendor. The pricing that companies pay or aren't willing to pay to sponsor the site can be viewed as private information and personally I would like a way for someone to be directed to a "Become a Vendor" page from the sponsor list which contains some text and/or custom fields and upon submission will go into the moderation queue. This would also be a good time to gather the necessary information such as website, company name, node sponsor images, etc. Once approved they would be added to a secondary group which designates them as a vendor and an email/alert sent out notifying them about the upgrades page which they should now be able to view.
This prevents normal members from poking their head in here and looking at the vendor pricing. Sometimes, it is none of their business how much a company is paying.
Additionally, this gives me an opportunity to reject a sponsor. Perhaps I don't like the company's reputation or what they are trying to promote.
I know this is more or less out of scope as this could be done as a stand alone addon, however it would be nice to have sales funnel integration right from the sponsor's page through to the checkout.
