[Feature request] Multi channel open #276

Open mutatrum opened 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Multi channel open with something like balance of satoshis (bos tools) is magic, and saves on plenty of fees. I've batch-opened 9 channel batch in a single transaction on an empty mempool, so with a 1 sat/vB transaction and this resulted in an on-chain fee of (IIRC) 55 sats per channel. It's a superpower for serious node managers.

Describe the solution you'd like Extend the open channel dialog with add another channel, and stack multiple channels with amounts before creating the opening transaction.

Describe alternatives you've considered Alternative is going through bostools, but even with that it's a bit clunky, as you need two terminals, one for bos open and one for bos fund and involves some command line parameter formatting between the two and copy-pasting the signed transaction from one terminal to the other. Not difficult, but a bit finicky.

Additional context It's an advanced feature, so it might be outside the scope of ThunderHub. The fees saves is a big benefit though.
