Hi all, Thanks again Jonas for starting this!
I worked on a similar proposal a while back (never posted), approaching
the same problem as if a merchant's website accepted xpubs/public keys,
created multi-signature addresses, and wanted the user to easily sign
offline instead of using some javascript code / using Core's debug
console / coinb.in
Happily the procedure is largely the same, though I would echo Jochen's
point that there needs to be a way to request an xpub/public key.
The redeemScript and witnessScript are also required fields for full
validation & signing a transaction input if it's P2SH, or just the
witnessScript if it's bare V0_P2WSH
Since the output amounts are required, so maybe instead provide
serialized TxOut's? or Utxo's i.e: [txid, vout, amount, scriptPubKey].
The protocol ought to be as stateless as possible - it can't be assumed
whether the redeemScript and other details will ever be saved on the
device - so perhaps provide the redeemScript + witnessScript as the
final fields on the Utxo structure above.
I do think it enables two important choices for bitcoin users:
* it might be preferable to provide your own xpub vs generating a brand
new HD key to potentially lose.
* you could leverage the services provided by [random example]
GreenAddress without necessarily having to rely on signing code provided
by them, and so end up only having to trust only one ECDSA
implementation when interacting with a wide number of services
All the best
Thomas
