I think we were going to attempt to follow the Bitcoin/bips format. In which case, this sip should be renamed to sip-0001 and put in a folder with the same name. Then a table will be created in the doc/sips/README.md file that maps sip-0001 to remote-metadata.

Bitcoin/bips example: https://github.com/bitcoin/bips

@tbenz9 I renamed the directory to sip-0001-remote-metadata. I think short description is useful as a part of directory name, like human readable names of git branches.

Took the time to review this in full. A lot of this looks good, though some of the proposals around the file format, and other suggested changes may conflict with other stuff that we are working on.

I think the biggest strength of this document is highlighting all of the requirements and blocking factors for doing seed based file and contract recovery. Each of the individual proposed solutions though should probably their own SIP, as I think we could go back and forth with each of them a bunch of times, and I wouldn't want those conversations to dilute this document.
