I strongly agree, and wish I could upvote you more. Before I enter CC details on any site, I check: is it HTTPS? Is the domain correct? The average user might not, sure, but it's there for those of us who do. This abstracts that away. Creating a duplicate popup would be trivial, and harvesting data -- while appearing "trusted" -- is easier this way than the other way (because you don't even need to bother faking a domain). I hope the Stripe people are taking this into consideration.

I'm glad someone doesn't think I'm paranoid. We're dealing with money at work and someone thought of the same concept - make it look clean and make it look cool but there's no real way to let a user know that this is legit. I'd love to hear and discuss what Stripe has in mind (Don't worry, we're not in competition :) )
