Maybe you can automatically put paywall bypass instructions in the "TEXT" portion of the URL submissions?
edit: The auto-generated bypass instructions will get the top-sorted/top-comment favoritism that we normally try to avoid from users.
If sites don't want people to bypass paywalls, then they would not allow "special" ways to bypass paywalls. The fact that some paywalls have special referrer bypass rules reeks of financially motivated favoritism and entrenched interests preventing competition; the next search engine startup to be created is going to have a rough time of it.
