What is the motivation behind this feature request? Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This issue has been created to add support for legacy transactions to Filecoin so that contracts and user transactions are not scoped to a specific chain. Specifically, this issue tracks FIP discussion at filecoin-project/FIPs#962.
Describe the solution you'd like
Option #3 on filecoin-project/FIPs#962
"We could also prepend a transaction type byte to the signature field (for Ethereum transactions only). IMO, this is the best solution, but it may break any tooling manually signing/validating messages from Ethereum accounts. On the other hand, I'm doubtful any tooling like this exists, so we're probably fine."
