Many big websites use Worldpay, but small business use Protx more.
If Protx is supoorted, Magento would attract many small business to migrate.
Paypal should be fully supported and not only Paypal website pro.
Google checkout is less attracitve to customer, but you can get adwords credit which could be very appealing for any business owner.
As a UK business, I wish I can see Protx, Paypal and google checkout in the Magento V1.

WorldPay, PayJunction, CC Now, PayOffline… I think these are low priority, but hey… someone’ll want them eventually.
WorldPay is the biggest payment processor in the UK, and have a significant presence in numerous countries (including the US), so I wouldn’t really call them ‘low priority’
My vote (or even possibly my code) would be for Protx - one of the better value gateways in the UK.
Also, for the UK market, it would be good to ensure that the UK versions Google Checkout and PayPal work.
Its worth checking out what other e-commerce systems are supporting:
I’d like to see Chase Paymentech integrated because we have had an unacceptable amount of credit card declines using Authorize.net because of the way they are now set-up. If Paymentech is not officially supported in the production release can we still use it by integrating ourselves or am I missing something?
Authorize.net, PayPal Payments Pro (Payflow Pro), etc. is only garnered towards North American clientele. This means that the world will be void of any payment gateway that will be compatible with Magento, leaving Magento segregated from the world market. As a Canadian citizen, I am considering opening my e-commerce business in Hong Kong, and will personally need something that is compatible outside of North American-tailored merchant account providers.
I am also for Ogone. Ogone is a major payment platform in west europe (Germany, Austria, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Nederlands, ...). Ogone is very secure, I have never see any critics about Ogone safety like I did for Paypal.
One very important feature of Ogone is the integration with local / national homebank paiement system. What I mean by homebanking, is the software provided by your bank company to operate all your usual paiement, and this is very important because if in the USA the use of credit card to pay over Internet is usual, in Europe people are still being wary with credit card paiement.
So if you sale products to geeks that are confident with using credit card over Internet paypal is ok, but if want to sale product to a large audience, Ogone is better.
Macro payment service is designed for e-shops and large portals to receive payments from their buyers.
Your buyers will be able to pay by Lithuanian or Latvian banks e-banking systems, international payment cards, at Lithuanians press kiosks, and also by worldwide payment systems “webmoney” and “e-gold”.
