Thanks! This already needs rebase for the ZeroConf feature lol. sorry about that.

Hmm, do we need to list the methods? In general I think users should never change them manually.

Sounds good - I will remove them.

We should mention somewhere what we require vs support. I think currently we may only require StaticRemoteKey, but in the near future we'll probably require VariableLengthOnion too.

I will make two lists: one for required features (StaticRemoteKey and VariableLengthOnion) and one for supported features (everything else).

I think this link to BOLT 2 and the following two should not link to the closing-initiation-shutdown subsection.
| //! - `SCIDPrivacy` - supply channel aliases for routing | ||
| //! (see [BOLT-2](https://github.com/lightning/bolts/blob/master/02-peer-protocol.md#closing-initiation-shutdown) for more information). | ||
| //! - `Keysend` - send funds to a node without an invoice | ||
| //! (see [BOLT-11](https://github.com/lightning/bolts/blob/master/11-payment-encoding.md) for more information). |

Pointing users towards this URL may be misleading since BOLT 11 does AFAIK not contain any further information on keysend payments?

I think you are right - I will link to the Keysend feature assignment proposal.
Closes#438.
Issue: Post #428 merge, would be great to document FeatureContext* setters (lightning/src/ln/msgs.rs), I don't think optional features are documented anyway in the current codebase beyond references to BOLT.
Changes: Added documentation in
features.rson what the currently-supported features do in the LDK based on BOLT-9 feature flags.
