Description
Use case: the user has 2 or more address they can ship to. The merchant would like to pre-calculate the shipping costs and ideally pre-sort the addresses by cost.
To prevent accessing PII without the user's knowledge, the UA could provide only partial addresses (e.g. Country + zip/postal code) upfront, based on which the merchant could still calculate costs.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the Payment Request API's existing shipping-address and shipping-cost flows, then compare them with the use case described here. Done would require a decided API design for pre-calculating costs across available addresses while limiting address data exposure, along with corresponding specification changes.
