I feel that such a polling mechanism adds very little value. If we want a polling mechanism, we should have one that allows the merchant to check whether the user has a matching payment app installed. I think it's fine that the mechanism lets the merchant extract sensitive information about installed apps, as long as the user has given consent first.
