Also consider the following site where things about this proposal are discussed:

Test Plan

  • ninja all check-functional-extended
  • Given the consensus-sensitive changes, it is recommended to run a full IBD in all possible networks. (with -assumevalid=0 to ensure all scripts are evaluated).

Acknowledgments

Thanks @cculianu for helping me with some design decisions, for pre-reviewing the code (it's much more polished now for the other reviewers), and for running various IBDs on different networks.
