I think you should consider established opcodes in other bitcoin derived chains as possible ways forward for UTXO based covenants.
The benefits are:
1) You already got a testnet 2) Opcodes demonstrated secure in the wild 3) Free documentation 4) Better compatibility with existing chains 5) Existing testing frameworks
Here's a link to technical specification, same document has abstracts, motivation etc:
