I don't really see the point of CHECKSIGFROMSTACKADD since it's not bound
to the txdata? When might you use this?

And yes -- "Add OP_CHECKSIGFROMSTACK and OP_CHECKSIGFROMSTACKVERIFY to
follow the semantics from bip340-342 when witness program is v1." is a bit
light on detail for what the BIP would end up looking like. If you're able
to open up the design process a bit more on that it would be good as I
think there are some topics worth discussing at large before things proceed
with Elements (assuming feature compatibility remains a goal).

The non-prehashed argument seems OK (at the cost of an extra byte...) but
are there specific applications for !=32 arguments? I can't think of a
particular one beyond perhaps efficiency. Can we safely use 0-520 byte
arguments?

Also do you have thoughts on the other questions i posed above? E.g.
splitting R/S could be helpful w/o CAT.
