For example:
The following descriptor template and derivation path:
<code>wsh(sortedmulti(2,[xfpForA/XY'/0'/0']XpubA/**,[xfpForB/XY'/0'/0']XpubB/**))</code>
<code>/0/*,/1/*</code>
Expands to the two concrete descriptors:
<code>wsh(sortedmulti(2,[xfpForA/XY'/0'/0']XpubA/0/*,[xfpForB/XY'/0'/0']XpubB/0/*))#Checksum</code>
<code>wsh(sortedmulti(2,[xfpForA/XY'/0'/0']XpubA/1/*,[xfpForB/XY'/0'/0']XpubB/1/*))#Checksum</code>
# Scan addresses of the external chain; respect the gap limit described below
To discover addresses, scan addresses of the external chain; respect the gap limit described below
Note: This therefore necessitates that multisig wallets backup their private key information and their descriptor, in order to properly restore at a later time. This shouldn't be a user burden, since (to much user surprise), all cosigner public keys need to be supplied in addition to <code>M</code> seeds in any <code>M</code> of <code>N</code> multisig restore operation. The descriptor provides this information in a standardized format, with key origin information and error detection.
