I was reading about it the other day and it sounds very nice. I'm going to try it on a site for testing.
Regarding the pricing... I understand that nobody likes to pay yearly fees, but when I see software selling for a one time price I get very suspicious. If you want the software to continue improving, filling gaps, patching (especially WordPress)... it is simply not sustainable from the developers perspective to sell one product for a one time price, they would need some way of creating continued value from the same clients by either selling more products or by selling a support package.
Imagine trying to make reasonable money selling a product for a one-time fee of $50. There is just no way that could properly be supported from a customer support angle or a development angle.
A lifetime membership to a porn site that updates with new, exclusive content every week for $50? :-)
