Re: [browser-payment-api] Should a website be able to provide a label for the "Buy" or "Checkout" button displayed in the payment app? (#56)

I also heard support for the browser having control over this and not the website from @rsolomakhin amongst others.

There was some discussion on this topic at the face to face and an interesting point was made by @mattsaxon and @vkuntz about the need for a user to confirm exactly what they are authorizing.

So, it was suggested that the payee be able to provide a string that is always used to prompt the user and the user's acknowledgement is tied to that string.

Examples:
* "Pay $50 to XYZ Store for invoice ABC123"
* "Reserve $300 for payment to ABC Car Rental"
* "Create a new recurring payment to Bob's DIY Magazine for $25 per month"

It was also suggested that the payee be able to provide a link to some T&Cs and request that the user click a check-box to acknowledge that they have read these.

I would suggest we think this through very carefully and consider all of the regulatory and liability implications for how we address this requirement.
