So I think we have two cases where wallets want to find txs spending from t=
heir
outputs:

1) Waiting for a confirmation
2) Detecting theft

The former can be turned off once there are no expected unconfirmed
transactions.

As for the latter, this is probably a valuable thing for wallets to do. Mod=
ulo
reorgs, reducing the frequency that you check for stolen funds doesn't decr=
ease
total bandwidth cost - it's one filter match per block regardless - but per=
haps
the real-world bandwidth cost can be reduced by, say, waiting for a wifi
connection rather than using cellular data.
