Defining a BIP for cross-chain trading would be one way to do that.

I don't think it quite requires the same = coordination in the short term.=C2=A0 I could write up the sequence as an i= nfo BIP.

The malleability "issue"= has been known for years.
I wouldn't expect any special effort made to fix it...

It is possible to tweak the protocol so that it still w= orks.=C2=A0 However, it means that 3rd parties are required (that could go = in the BIP too).

There is some ongoing discussion of a softfork to basically redo the Script=

we'll see it in the wild.

Luke

P.S. Did the BIP editor assign these numbers? If not, best to keep them
numberless until assigned, to avoid confusion when people Google the real B= IP
44 and 45...

Not yet, but that is just = my personal repo.=C2=A0 I did email gmaxwell, but he said that they can'= ;t be assigned until some discussion has happened.
