Can you explain what the problem is here? The payment message can be
transmitted after the payment has been received through the P2P network.
Am I missing something?

Furthermore, if we give up the robustness of the P2P network, we will
likely end up with more failed payments. There is so much that can go
wrong when trying to connect via HTTP (proxies etc.), Bluetooth
endpoints can go away, etc. At least we should provide fallback
payment_url's in this case.

As for you proposal, just be aware I'd like to use the payment protocol
for face to face payments as well. That meant payment request via NFC or
QR, payment message and payment confirmations via Bluetooth. I think it
can be done by putting a Bluetooth mac address into the payment_url.
