I would really prefer chain=<chainID> over network=<chainPetnameStr>
By chainID I mean the hash of the genesis block, see
https://github.com/jtimon/bitcoin/commit/3191d5e8e75687a27cf466b7a4c70bdc04809d39
I'm completely fine with doing that using an optional parameter (for
backwards compatibility).
I agree with Andreas Schildbach that respecting the most commonly used
schemes is desirable.
So my preference would be:
/tx/3b95a766d7a99b87188d6875c8484cb2b310b78459b7816d4dfc3f0f7e04281a?chain=000000000933ea01ad0ee984209779baaec3ced90fa3f408719526f8d77f4943
(a tx in testnet)
/block/00000000000000000b0d504d142ac8bdd1a2721d19f423a8146d0d6de882167b?chain=000000000019d6689c085ae165831e934ff763ae46a2a6c172b3f1b60a8ce26f
(a block in bitcoin's mainnet)
