What about being able to set the asking price for a name in BTC or USD and upon page load the price in HNS is calculated based on the HNS/BTC or HNS/USD rate at the time. This means we wouldn't have to reset the HNS asking price each time there's a swing in the price.

I would add ETH wallets to accounts to allow metamask integration. Yes, you might have to wrap it, but I'm involved in some other projects where you can buy NFTs with BTC or ETH, and it's so much easier to buy with ETH using metamask, because you can import your site ETH wallet. So in other words, you could actually transfer the Handshake name to an eth wallet. Even if you don't want to tackle storing a Handshake key/name with a smart contract, a manual ETH buy/sell would still be a nice option.

Add Monero as Payment option

🙌 Fungibility🙌

Monero adds privacy, and many people don't want to speculate on the HNS value by having to hold it in order to interact with Namebase

We plan to enable direct purchases of names from the marketplace with other forms of currency :)

Assuming you're talking about using this for selling domains and not the Namebase Pro feature for buying and selling HNS I second this notion.
I would also add that it should be slightly more extensive in that it should be BTC, USD, or HNS and pegged to whichever we select so that fluctuations don't affect the outcome we were expecting to receive.
This is basically what you've suggested but I felt I would elaborate more on it and clarify in case others might overlook those finer points.
