For privacy reasons we have assumed that the payee will always initiate by presenting the set of options they are prepared to accept. This is identical to almost all use cases today where a payer arrives on a "checkout" or "payment" screen and must select the way they wish to pay. There is no way of getting around this while preserving the privacy of the payer other than to assume an existing relationship between payer and payee in which this set of options was already negotiated and is now presented in the context of a specific payment request. I believe your second use case above would likely fit into this scenario. Bare in mind that the payee exercises their market power in determining which options to present the payer. If the payee has significant power they will present a limited set that suits their needs on the assumption that the payer will have to accept one of these. If the payer has the market power the payee will likely present a large set of options hoping that the payer will be prepared to use one of them.
