Never seen this, but thanks for posting. I think I may get the minion starter even if I don't get the grate - it will be way easier than using a coffee can.
I have an 18.5, and I get 12-14 hours on a full standard basket of KBB charcoal using a party q (now digi q) fan set up from BBQ Guru. Without the fan, I get more like 8-12 hours depending on the weather. So a fan set up may get you longer burn time.

on my WSM 22 with the Cajun Bandit charcoal ring, I get 12-14 hours from a full load of KBB without a fan. That said, I love the minion starter and definitely going to get this.
Also, I went through all the pictures they have and they show one with the fully assembled WSM, water pan in place, and their charcoal ring. So, assume it fits fine.

I picked up the charcoal basket and the minion starter for the 18" wsm, and it works as advertised. The minion starter holds about 1/2 chimney of lit coals. I did some ribs with it yesterday and while it ran a little hotter than normal - up around 280 - it just meant the ribs were done a little quicker. I like the charcoal basket a lot for clean up - I was able to shake the ash out and pour the leftover coals directly into my storage can after they were completely cool. The only drawback is that the edges are sharp. You have to either wear gloves while handling the parts or be very careful. The water pan fits just fine. Here are a couple of pics:
