There's another important use case which you mentioned Greg, that also
requires special exemption: compact commitments via mid-state compression.
The use case is an OP_RETURN output sorted last, whose last N bytes are a
commitment of some kind. A proof of the commitment can then use mid state

Oh.
Hm.
It is the case that the generalized sighash flag design I was thinking
abou

FWIW, The Open Assets colored coin protocol (CoinPrism) places special
significance on the zeroth input and the position of the OP_RETURN colored
coin marker output to distinguish colored coin issuance outputs from
transfer outputs. Reordering the inputs or the outputs breaks the colored
coin repre
Certainly, but I would drop discussion of IsStandard or consensus rules.

But in that case (unconstrained) randomization can't be us

Ah, I forgot about that particular wart. Yech. Implies that you can
order inputs or outputs, not
Rusty, this doesn't play well with SIGHASH_SINGLE which is used in
assurance contracts among other things. Sometimes the ordering is set by
the signing logic itself...
