Great and exciting stuff!

@thomaseizinger you have quite a lot of comments that I don't think were in the original spike you wrote with @LLFourn. Is there any notes or discussions that you had that were not reported in the original spike?

We never wrote a spike, we only started looking into the topic for ~1h. There were quite a few unanswered questions and open points at that point. All we wrote down was the current state, which was mostly about getting the new feature to actually work + what you can do with it.
I am bit surprised about your expectation that our spike was done/complete.

Some of the open points have now been answered/addressed in this spike, hence my comments.

Clearly a misunderstanding. I thought the take over was to organise the work to be done. I understood that the spike was finished hence my surprise of the initial content length. Now I wonder why it was handed over. Clearly I missed something🤔

IIRC it was handed over because I started to work on libp2p stuff and @LLFourn started to dig into Scriptless-Scripts.
This happened as a result of discussing, who is the most interested in working on which topics. I think you and @bonomat were keen on Lightning, hence you took over were we left of.

I see no pending comments, is this ready for merge?
