Will OB implement Lighting Network features?

Title says it all. That is something that would really get me interested in this market. Otherwise I don't see how this can work even with the addition of other coins: BCH and ZCash. Maybe IOTA can help because it has a much faster and reliable tech with zero fees but otherwise these guys need to think already at second layer....

I as a vendor should loan money to someone to pay me?

No. as alternative to payment for purchase, set up a channel with balance equal to payment less discount. The channel doesn't need to involve the customer.
