I believe this is what bountysource.com is for. I haven't tried it, though, and I'm not sure how completion is evaluated.

Seems problematic to let the bounty-poster decide if something is completed, but also to put it on a third party to put in the time to verify for various pieces of software they might not be familiar with (and worse to put it on the second party who implements).
