Allow heirs to produce an OP_RETURN output instead of a regular BTC payment. An address prefixed with OP_RETURN: carries hex data (max 80 bytes); such heirs always have amount 0 and are excluded from amount calculations. GUI dialog shows a message field with the decoded text, the heir list displays the decoded message, and the OP_RETURN output is emitted with zero value in inheritance transactions.

Bitcoin After Life Electrum Plugin
Free and decentralized Bitcoin inheritance support for Electrum: build time-locked "will" transactions that transfer your funds to your heirs if you stop refreshing them (dead-man's switch), optionally relayed by will-executor servers.
Key behaviours
- Anticipate / postpone safety: changing the delivery time of an already-signed will is handled safely. Postponing a signed/sent will first asks you to invalidate the old transaction on-chain (so a will-executor can never broadcast the earlier-locktime transaction and execute the inheritance too early), then lets you rebuild and re-send the new one via Tools → Prepare.
- "Server" column: the will transaction list shows whether each transaction
is actually stored on the will-executor servers
