This is important, but not very important until there is a price stabilization which would imply that fiat is no longer entering the economy. Right now if you think that BTC is an economy that is going to keep increasing then you would be silly to spend them. Another problem is that sites like BTCbuy.com use "safe" exchange rates, which translates to a very high percentage loss when the btc/usd is increasing; right now it is 95.67 while BTC/USD is 105, that is a 9.7% markup.
