With regard to (2), the torrc file is not a dot file by default. Also
the RemittanceAddresses syntax doesn't seem entirely consistent to me.
There's also a spelling error in your description. My patch below for
(2) addresses these. I don't have any comments for (1).

 Motivation
-We wish to add the ability for individual users to donate to the owners
of relay operators using a cryptocurrency.  We propose adding an
optional line to the .torrc file which will be published in the
directory consensus and listed on https://compass.torproject.org.

 Proposal

-Allow an optional “RemittanceAddresses” line to the .torrc file containing
+Allow an optional “RemittanceAddresses” line to the torrc file containing
 comma-delimited cryptocurrency URIs.  For example,

-RemittanceAddressses bitcoin
19mP9FKrXqL46Si58pHdhGKow88SUPy1V8,namecoin:NAMEuWT2icj3ef8HWJwetZyZbXaZUJ5hFT
+RemittanceAddressses bitcoin
19mP9FKrXqL46Si58pHdhGKow88SUPy1V8,namecoin
NAMEuWT2icj3ef8HWJwetZyZbXaZUJ5hFT

-The contents of the node’s RemittanceAddresses line will be mirrored in
the node’s router descriptor (which is then published in the directory
consensus).  This line will be treated akin to the ContactInfo field.
An address may not contain a colon, coma, or nonprintable ASCII.
