Personally I believe an enhanced version of WebCrypto would be a better mouse-trap
because it could enable a variety of web-based payment systems and protocols.
There will never be a single payment system or protocol.

It is good enough if the payee can query the payer for payment options.

Unfortunately the WebCrypto group lacks competence in this area and the current
deliverable probably won't reach particular far outside of super-providers like Google.
