Kind of off topic, but I think it would be interesting if a pool did provide a small reward to the actual person that find the block.  Nothing big, just something to make it interesting and even more of an intensive to have a high overall hash rate to be the finder.  Possibly a slightly larger portion of the 25 btc than they would have received.. or half the transaction fee amount gained.  The pool would need to of course be transparent as to who the user name or some ID of the finder and the extra reward they received.  Surprised no pool as implemented something like this yet.
