+Many thanks for your thoughts, ZmnSCPxj.

+I've not read of the FTP before; I welcome it, and take on board that it
+improves privacy by keeping a script offline. My first thought is that doesn't
+affect the suggested BIP, so my next update here won't include it. I recognise
+it would improve mainnet use of scripts though, so do expect to return to it.
+
+Cheers,
