I'd be very cautious of security implications of embedding files into the payment request. Even file formats one would presume safe, such as images, have had security issues (i.e. https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/ms11-006 )
Longer term I was wondering about embedding the PaymentRequest into web pages directly via the <object> tag, which could eliminate need for BIP0072 and potentially improve user interface integration that way. Obviously this would require browser plugins, however. Ross On 26/04/14 18:36, Mike Hearn wrote: >> PaymentRequests are limited to 50,000 bytes.
