The stealth address stuff is the ECDH to create multiple payment
addresses without querying the payee.
Uh while I'm responding again, what I'd discussed with Peter Todd in
IRC used two EC points in the stealth address. One for the payment and
one for the ECDH. The reason to use two is that it makes delegating
detection possible and so you don't have to have you spending keys
online to even detect these payments. Why'd that get dropped?
I don't think this is a good idea if you have to constantly keep your
spending key(s) online even to detect payments, even with the limited
use-cases envisioned.
