Nice work, svk. A couple questions: 1. To access multiple accounts from this simple wallet, would it require multiple logins? Or could multiple accounts be linked to one wallet and accessed via one log in? 2. Would it be possible for some entity (e.g. OpenLedger) to offer password recovery service in conjunction with the simplified login? 3. Can the simplified login be implemented in the current default bitshares wallet? Thanks in advance.

- Yes it requires multiple logins like on steemit.com. Since there's no real wallet, just a set of keys stored in memory, it's the easiest way of doing things. Support for multiple accounts could be added but I would prefer to keep it as simple as possible to be honest. What we've seen with the normal BTS GUI is that there's a lot of confusion over accounts vs wallets, so in this version I'd like to keep it to one login -> one account.
- Sure, but it would be equivalent to giving them control of your private keys. I'm no expert on password management or recovery though, there might be a good way to implement this without jeopardising your keys.
- The default wallet is heavily tied to the "wallet" infrastructure which is part of the reason why I decided to make this new wallet from scratch. It might be possible to add the simplified login though, I'll have to investigate a bit.
