[bisq-network/bisq] New Action Protocol for MEDIATORS (#4356)

[leo816]

>  I have cases with all current mediators with name mismatch, which is a direct violation of the trade protocol, and received different responses/rulings.

@ncstdc That is the reason why im trying to establish an action protocol that can standarize this procedure. Please remember the mediator can only suggest an outcome, he doesn't have the power to make a payout. If the seller decides to release the btc, there is nothing that can be done from the side of the mediator. 

regarding @MwithM : 

> About case 2: If sellers loses all or nearly all in case of mediation, the trades will end up in arbitration as sellers have nothing to lose they reject mediation.

 Remember that these trades we are talking about (where the seller disappears) are all already ending up in arbitration for the most part, so It wouldn't make much difference. If the seller never responds, the trade will eventually go into arbitration and the refund agent can make the correct payout considering the mediator's suggestion. 
If you are talking about that time between the mediation ticket closed and the funds going to the donation address then that is definitely an issue we are working on but not there yet.
