This ERC introduces a gasLimitOverride capability for EIP-5792, allowing apps to specify per-call gas limits when using wallet_sendCalls. Apps often have more context about expected gas usage than wallets, particularly for calls with nondeterministic behavior. Wallets are responsible for estimating any batching overhead and for calls where apps don't provide a limit.

Was kind of just following the pattern set by other 5792 capabilities, but agree there's room to be more descriptive. Other examples:

  • ERC-7682 - Auxiliary Funds Capability
  • ERC-7677 - Paymaster Web Service Capability
  • ERC-7902 - Wallet Capabilities for Account Abstraction
  • ERC-7795 - Wallet Call Token Capabilities

Given that EIP-5792 is called "Wallet Call API", maybe Wallet Call Gas Limit Override Capability would be more descriptive? WDYT?
