Thanks a lot.

Thanks for the feedback.
[...] from another newbie I can say that I find this overview really interesting. What I think it may confuse is in step 5 where it says "These coins are not anonymous", since coins do not change its condition but is the merchant who reveals its identity in the operation.

Good point. I have changed step 5 to read "These coins are
still anonymous, although the transaction itself is not
anonymous." WDYT?
I was thinking how to put it in simple words and maybe what's missing is the concept of the contract.
Maybe: In step 3.5 merchant creates a contract with the terms, currency and amount. In step 4, either the merchant or the consumer are able to send the (contract + coins) to the exchange. In return it gives a receipt. In step 5, the consumer can call the exchange to get the coins left over from the payment.
I'm not entirely sure so my comments may need a review if that's how the protocol works.

IIUC (but note that i'm no expert, either!), your description is
accurate. However, to keep things simple, i've decided to not
include it in this particular document.
