Is there any chance it could become richer? What governs the content of credit card and bank statements? Is there anyone pushing for them to be more useful?
I think (granted, this is from a quick bit of research so I could be wildly wrong) - the message you see in your credit card app with a transaction is usually mainly the merchant name and location which is part of ISO 8583, so it may be a bit hard to extend it to include an arbitrary message in a way that works without merchants having to replace card reader/POS systems en-masse.
