How to see some important channel parameters (before and after connecting)
I would like to see, somehow, if nodes I am connected to or want to connect to have a couple important properties. Including
- MPP enabled
- Anchor channels enabled (helps with estimating the fees for channel closes, making justice-transactions and force-closes more reliable)
- Data loss protection (DLP) enabled (your peers need to have it enabled if you want to use the recovery with the static channel backup)
How can I see this kind of information, with the CLI or Thunderhub? And can you see this before actually connecting?
Also, it maybe it could be a feature in LN+ where you could put some tags on your node about what you do and don't support. I don't want to connect with anyone who does not have DLP enabled for example :)
Honestly, I have all these features enabled (by default) but I have no idea they are working.
I don't know how standard or non-standard these settings are, and if LND and C-Lightning play together nicely on these things.

This is a very interesting need. I will definitely investigate if I can provide it.
