If a field requires significant description as to its usage, it should be accompanied by a separate BIP.
The field must be added to the field listing tables in the Specification section.

it is still safe to add >0xFD fields to PSBT 0, because these old parsers ignore
unknown fields, and <keytype> is prefixed by its length.
