Thanks for the comments. To clarify, do you mean that transactions with OP_PUSHDATA and OP_DROP, etc would be rejected by current clients?
They would not be rejected by the network, but transactions that differ at all from the two standard transactions can’t be received by standard clients.
So if I take a standard transaction to 179c7kVKJNxJN1TJ8EqcFhzXDAkrMqr2uB: Code:OP_DUP OP_HASH160 43716564ed4d679067da12bee139fd294c1f1b84 OP_EQUALVERIFY OP_CHECKSIGAnd I add some extra data to it: Code:“BitDNS v0001 asdf” OP_DROP OP_DUP OP_HASH160 43716564ed4d679067da12bee139fd294c1f1b84 OP_EQUALVERIFY OP_CHECKSIG179c7kVKJNxJN1TJ8EqcFhzXDAkrMqr2uB will not even see my transaction in their client because they don’t know how to read that modified transaction. It will still be in the block chain, though.
