PI Interchain Queries Design #1992

Closed yorhodes closed 1 year ago

yorhodes commented 1 year ago

Problem:

Currently the queries middleware uses the static router pattern and cannot be used on non-enshrined chains.

In the same spirit of PI ICAs, the user should be able to optionally specify which destination contract should receive the interchain query message.

Desirable Features:

Only inherit security guarantees of queried chain to querying chain transport layer for maximal utility for longtail PI chains
Minimize gas overhead and latency of round trip Hyperlane messages incurred for query
