I think there's an opportunity to do any type of idea now that uses bitcoin and reduce the need to bootstrap altogether - just accept donations from bitcoiners (even without a prototype,) who would be happy to give a small portion of their stash if it means increasing the value of the remainder. Eg some site called bitcoinstartups.com could list them (something more streamlined than http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?board=12.0)
