SIGHASH_NONE should be kept. ANYONECANPAY|NONE allows donation of dust UTXOs to miners

We might refuse to sign weird combinations like NOFEE|ALLINPUT|ALLOUTPUT. But to keep the consensus logic simple, we should just validate it as usual.

Yes, it looks complicated to me, and it improves security only in some avoidable edge cases in SIGHASH_NOINPUT:

The common case: the exact masked script or address is reused. OP_MASK can’t prevent signature replay since the masked script is the same.

The avoidable case: the same public key is reused in different script templates. OP_MASK may prevent signature replay is the masked script is not the same.

The latter case is totally avoidable since one could and should use a different public key for different script.

It could be made much simpler as NOINPUT with/without SCRIPT. This again is only helpful in the avoidable case above, but it doesn’t bring too much complexity.

OP_MASK is designed to preserve the hackiness, while provide some sort of replay protection (only in avoidable cases). However, I’m not sure who would actually need NOINPUT with KNOWNSCRIPT
