Good morning Corne,

You mention URLs in your draft. This made me remember about the Web Payments Working Group of W3C, https://www.w3.org/Payments/WG/ , of which Decker, Christian of Blockstream is a member: https://www.w3.org/2000/09/dbwg/details?group=83744&public=1

My understanding is that Christian aims to make Bitcoin payments (and possibly Lightning invoice payments?) payable over Web payment protocols that W3C group is working on.

Possibly the Web Payments Working Group may provide better perspective on various other payment use cases as well as their subtleties, which can help inform your considerations in your proposed BOLT12.

Regards,
ZmnSCPxj
