It is possible to be both backward-compatible and to avoid wasting space
in URIs, if we simply assume that the payment request is a single
standard output + amount (that scenario will probably cover 99% of the
cases, and the few other cases may not need QR codes). We generate a
serialized bip70 PR from the parameters found in the URI, sign that
string, and add the signature to the URI.
Example:
bitcoin:1H14AiSc4PqkK9VTmeutZU3edSy3HS5HL8?amount=3D1&message=3Dhere%20is=
%20a%20test&time=3D1437489571&exp=3D604800&name=3Decdsa.net&sig=3D3Quot6m=
2RsR43NgV8VQQx3Ngf5u8wZY18mu523x3ViLrA3WLwSoQum2Znw3gRsTgfADpHuEiyyjnpxCL=
KWrkR4RQM
'time' is the timestamp of the request
'exp' is the duration of validity, 1 week here
(it saves a few bits to express it that way)
'name' is the domain name of the signer
'sig' is the signature
The QR code derived from that URI is perfectly scannable with a phone.
