I like location-anonymous access - my banks don't need to know
where I am right now. I'm not anonymous to them - I need to
log in anyway.

A very slight such - there is SSL. If not, run from your bank.

My banks per se never made problem (and why should they -
first I log in (and three failing attempts will lock up
the account (DoS anyone?)), and secondly for transactions
I also need a TAN device and my card.
Where I had trouble was with the credit card processor
once by ordering something using tor ('your IP was
from the US..', I'm in germany and ordering from a
german company).
