Our BIP just defines protocol definitions, and doesn't really dictate how
people use them (we're coming up with a new title for the BIP, by the way,
to more accurately convey that). Using our definitions as building blocks,
someone could definitely accomplish what you described. For example, Joe
Mobile Wallet User's wallet could upload a slew of generic PaymentRequest
messages with signatures to prove his identity, and the server could then
create encryptedPaymentRequest messages using the server's key for
encryption and communication with the other party. In this case the server
would essentially be a proxy for the user without having actual access to
the user's private keys.

My personal goal with the protocol was to keep it extremely flexible so
developers could use it to build all different types of schemes while
keeping standard messages that could be forwarded between services if
needed. Does the above make sense?

&gt; The motivation for defining this extension to the BIP70 Payment Protoc=

&gt;<br>
&gt; The motivation for this extension to BIP70 is threefold:<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; 1. Ensure that the payment details can only be seen by the participant=
s in<br>
&gt; the transaction, and not by any third party.<br>
&gt; 2. Enhance the Payment Protocol to allow for store and forward servers=
 in<br>
