Default Buskers, Oyster prepay

There was an unlicenced busker at St Paul's a few days ago who nearly
poked my eye out with the bow of her violin. She was standing right at
the bottom of the escalators and her bow was poking into the escalator
on the left at about eye level for a tall person. I passed through
today and she was still there, but at least she had moved from the eye
poking position.

Oyster prepay has the rather annoying ability of allowing you to travel
without a travelcard when you actually want to buy one. I fairly
regularly end up being charged for making journeys and buying a
travelcard later in the day. Will capping be able to take it into
account if you make journeys on prepay and then later in the day buy a
period ticket (weekly, monthly etc.) that would have covered those
journeys? This would be handy for things like taking a bus to the local
tube station to buy your ticket.
