I have always advocated for the mobile number to be the single proxy identifier for P2P / P2M payments. However, I can see why you might ‘legitimately’ not want everyone to have your mobile number.
I assume you are aware of the European Payment Council’s initiative to create a single verified database of mobile numbers for such purposes.
The SEPA Proxy Lookup (SPL) scheme covers the exchange of the data necessary to initiate payments between proxy-based payment solutions on a pan-European level. It aims to facilitate interoperability between participating payment solutions.
Thought provoking ideas as always, Dave!

I wasn't, or maybe I was but forgot. Anyway, I'll got at it. I'm sure I'll think it's a bad idea.
