Implement listenForContinuationAtName #11

Closed JoshOrndorff closed 5 years ago

RNode offers a service to check for continuations on a name, that this API does not expose.

Ultimately I'd like to support the entire gRPC API to the extent possible. The implementation should be similar to the one for listenForDataAtName

@crypto-coder Maybe this would be a good one to tackle soon? It's the most obvious part of the API that we have not yet implemented.

I'm not that interested to support it just because it's there. But you thought of a use case, didn't you, @JoshOrndorff ?

JoshOrndorff commented 5 years ago

I thought of two, but only remember one right now.

It would be nice for dApp UIs to automatically prevent users from trying to call contracts that don't exist. For example trying to be the 10th caller to a radio station that isn't having such a competition. Or posting their status before they registered.
