Hi, yes when I say (version, hash) I actually mean to make the output a
version and a hash. That would allow to deploy new feature and have them
fit in the address format right away. That would be the idea way to do
this, in my opinion, but we'll see if that can be sold to the ecosystem.

If not, adding an opcode or adding a second P2SH pattern can also be done.
