 Based on our due diligence in getting information about the endpoint, I
 don't think it was ever a question of whether the actual service was
 popular, it definitely seems to be more that people are generally unaware
 of the endpoint. I mean,  if you look at the plugin I created just as a
 test case for this ticket, it's had a whopping 70 downloads since it was
 released the first week in August.

 So I'm still -1 on adding the provider. It's pretty much up to Kickstarter
 if they want to promote their endpoint. I don't think it's necessarily
 core's job to promote it for them, just because it's a popular service.
 We'd be meeting a demand that doesn't seem to exist.
