Thanks for references. Yeah, I don't need X509 signing (if I could use 
certificates, I wouldn't need to include PR in the URL in the first place).

I presume you used "BITCOIN:-<payment request>" instead of 
"bitcoin:?r=somescheme://<payment request>" to make it more compact. 

I also tried to look up Base43, but I could not find any info on how it is 
specifically optimized for QR codes. Could you enlighten me?
