[Bitcoin-development] BIP 70 and OP_RETURN

The description of the Output message states that the payment request
can specify any standard TxOut script, and that OP_RETURN is a standard
transaction type that would imply the ability to specify OP_RETURN
outputs in BIP 70 payment requests.

If the creator of a payment request wanted the sender to include a small
amount of data as an OP_RETURN output, how would they specify this?

They would just encode the OP_RETURN script into an Output structure. I'm
not sure about the question - you seem to give the answer yourself in the
first paragraph?

I guess what I was asking is whether or not all BIP70 compatible clients
will support the creation of all standard output types, including
OP_RETURN outputs.

They should do. If they don't they're not spec compliant. I'm not sure what
they actually do though. Currently only Bitcoin Core and Android Bitcoin
Wallet implement BIP 70 so you can just create such a request and then try
it out and see what happens.
