Is that a common occurrence? Having the customer enter the amount, I mean. I would think it'd be a recipe for getting shortchanged (especially if one uses a gift card, which would be impossible to trace back to the customer).

I have seen this in Europe many times, yes, always at restaurants. I usually round up to the next Euro/Pound/whatever.
