Simple Summary

For JSON-RPC methods which currently accept a default block parameter, additionally allow the parameter to be a block hash.

Abstract

This EIP can be considered a generalization of EIP234. It would enable clients to unambiguously specify the block they want to query for certain JSON-RPC methods, even if the block is not in the canonical chain. This allows clients to maintain a coherent picture of blockchain state that they are interested in, even in the presence of reorgs, without requiring that the node maintain a persistent connection with the client or store any client-specific state.
