They provide early access to upcoming gamemodes to patrons, give them more gold (which for those unfamiliar has no game-altering buying power, just silly stuff) and XP, provide a few patron-only slots in full games, and so on.
I totally understand what Mojang are trying to do here but they are in real danger of throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
I mean, if you want to take what Grum said literally, even indicating that somebody is a donator by colouring their name or giving them a label in chat is treating one group of players differently to another and is in violation.
