Suggest making a new BOLT document. This would be basically a new BOLT for how to generate a BOLT11 invoice. I suggest also to use instead the term "BOLT15 advertisement". > > The return lightning message Will this be a new message that fails the HTLC, or will we reuse `update_fail_htlc` to return the data as an error? >would contain a new bolt11 invoice (perhaps > we optimize some fields by copying from the bolt11 offer if they don't > appear?) Would this require some kind of canonical ordering for tagged fields in the generated bolt11 invoice? For t-l-v there is proposal for types to have an absolute order (from lowest-numbered to highest-numbered), which would be useful for such cases where we want to only give unique parts of something. Bolt11 invoices have a signature so the order of the tagged fields matters.
