πŸ“… Original date posted:2021-01-02
πŸ“ Original message:One thing I think should be added in V2 is the ability to specify sighash
flags per-key as opposed to per-input.

The per-key restriction is unfitting given that there are circumstances
where multisig signers may validate heterogenous logic.
