Bug Description

Presently, payment-service is only available to apps using Qt via Qt Purchasing add-on. However, non-Qt apps (mostly games) need some other way to process IAPs. A possible solution is to make libpay2 "public"/stable, or create another wrapper library around it for easier use.

Another possible problem with reliance on Qt Purchasing are apps written in language other than C/C++. A simple library to which a binding in any language could be written would be useful in this case.

This bug is created on advice of Alejandro J. Cura to gauge developers' interest in this feature.
