As announced on the last core devs call, the Quilt team (@willvillanueva , @SamWilsn , @matt , @adietrichs ) in collaboration with @vbuterin has published a new account abstraction EIP:
Account abstraction (AA) allows a contract to be the top-level account that pays fees and starts transaction execution.

To enable upgrades (eg. EIP-1559) the opcode needs to accept a variable number/length of arguments.

I know that account abstraction is not actively researched currently, but with the EVM Object Format we made a claim that EIP-2938 can be somewhat simplified. Here’s a short explainer for that: Account Abstraction with EVM Object Format - HackMD
Note that it is a rough sketch and I haven’t spent much time on going very deep into details. Notable differences include:
Account can advertise their claimed gas limit for the verification code
The verification code is clearly demarcated
PAYGAS can use stack items (as new version can be added via EOF versions)
