I'm pretty uncertain on that, maybe not strongly agree but I could see lots of agrees. People thinking "yes, that's a good thing to do that I don't personally do", perhaps similar to if you asked if people should fly less. Although I'd want to be explicit it's via a charity in the question.

If you asked 'do you think people donating at least 10% of their income to charities helping people in other countries is a reasonable thing to do?' I think you'd get majority yes.
How about 'a reasonable and normal thing to do'? And then how do you think it would compare to things like 'volunteering for a local charity', 'donating to a political party you support', 'campaigning against local buildings being destroyed', etc.? I think the EA stuff would be the least likely to be considered reasonable and normal.

I'd think more people donate money to charities than donate to political parties, volunteer for charities, or campaign. So it seems more normal.
