Oh yes, I should have mentioned this pinning vector. The witnessScript I've
in mind to make secure that type of chain of transactions would be one
MuSig key for all contract participants, where signature are committed with
SIGHASH_ANYPREVOUT | SIGHASH_IOMAP, one pubkey per participant to lockdown
the transaction with SIGHASH_ALL. I think it works and prevents malicious
in-flight attachment of input/output to a multi-party transaction ?

I see, so you spread your bumping UTXO pool in two ranges : at least one
bumping utxo per contract, and a subpool of emergency smaller coins, ready
to be attached on any contract. I think this strategy makes sense for
vaults as you can afford a bunch of small coins at different feerates,
spending the ones not used afterwards. And higher cells of feerate reserve
as the worst historical feerate are relatively not that much compared to
locked-in vaults value. That said, I'm more dubious about LN, where node
operators might not keep the worst-case fee-bumping reserve, as the time
value of the coins aren't worth the channel liquidity at stake.

chain in this case.

Yes, input-based bumping targeting the tail of the chain works at the
transaction level. But if you assume bounded visibility of network
mempools, one of your counterparties might have broadcast a concurrent
state, thus making your CPFP irrelevant for propagation. Though smarter
tx-relay techniques such as "attach-on-contract-utxo-root" CPFP (or also
known as "blinded CPFP") might solve this issue.
