interested in pursuing this, it seems logical to just keep it at BIP 46.

I was never officially assigned any number for this.

Subsequent P2SH changes give the required functionality in an alternative way. This renders the BIP obsolete.

I suggest marking the number as nonassignable, in order to prevent confusion with archive searches. I assume that new BIP numbers will be greater than 100 anyway.

As was pointed out at the time, I shouldn't have used a number in the original git branch before being assigned it officially.
