Good point.

All good points, I think we'll just use the first 4 bytes of the hash160 of
the pubkey, aka fingerprint.

0x00 is single sig, aka, OP_CHECKSIG

0x01 is multisig, aka, 1-of-3, 1-of-2 OP_CHECKMULTISIG

since OP_CHECKMULTISIG only supports at most 15-of-15 due to stack item
size limitations, we could make 0xff into this serial marker.

Definitely sounds good, but the currently proposed 0x01 global type is
being added to BIP174 directly under the assumption that it is useful for
all users of PSBT, and I would argue that 0x01 being an HD change verifying
method, it only seems logical to add a similar method of "verifying"
non-self keys, aka whitelisting for security purposes, and such a feature
would require this data be included into the PSBT sent into the device.

If the consensus is that this data is unneeded, 0x01 should probably also
be a separate BIP.

Though outside the scope of this BIP, one difficulty of a whitelist feature
would be revocation of signatures. If we pre-sign a revocation cert and
somehow make the wallet blacklist if seen... then the question is "if your
signer has a trustworthy store of state, why not store the whitelist
pubkeys?"

But that feature itself should be a separate BIP.

Also, POR_COMMITMENT being in BIP174 kind of set a precedent... :-/
