Hi Peter, > You can probably use timelock encryption to ensure that the leak of the private key only happens in the future, after the funds are recovered by the owner in a subsequent transaction.
Another very interesting point, there, to get around the issue of key leakage ... albeit I don't see a usecase, maybe I'm just not imaginative enough, very possible. If someone wants to keep something in the utxo set "forever", it doesn't help. If they want the property of "immediately accessible in the utxo set" (like "deposit into some fancy system with a blob of data"; I emphasize "deposit" because that would explain why not "just put it in the witness", your current outputs don't support that; correct me if my reasoning is wrong here), then I guess they don't get that, either: the data is accessible "intermediate term" instead.
