[atlas] Three improvement suggestions

Thank you all for the support for the idea. I'm not sure who would need to
implement it (RIPE NCC I suppose?), but yes, I like the marketplace idea
too. However, I'm happy to do it for free -- and making it easier for those
who use the credits for measurements, for me, is plenty.

I'll wait for a RIPE NCC staffer to respond as well.

Best,
-Michael
