Thanks for the suggested use case!
Unfortunately, I can find very little support in OGP to make this happen 
end-to-end. For example, the assumption that client A can even talk to 
servers B and C seems to be totally implicit, but can't be assumed in 
the general world.
Is there a use case that maps to OGP without making large assumptions, 
such as that of a client being able to talk to all worlds involved in 
the transaction?

Sincerely,
