Topic: HD Wallet Account Names (Read 986 times)
Oh yeah it would be SO useful to give accounts some kind of a name, it's so annoying right now!!!
I love my Trezor and it's use of HD wallets, but it would be really nice to have account names.
I was thinking that it would be useful to have a dictionary of account names, similar to the way private keys are translated to standard mnemonics through a published dictionary. An example category would be designating the n'th account/pocket as "3rd Child: College Savings" in some standardized and cross wallet dictionary. This could possibly allow for some added interoperability across HD wallets for their accounts/pockets, without any needed backup. I would imagine selecting from a few standard dictionaries which defines the a few hundred general account descriptions. Of course the use of any account dictionary would be entirely optional, and there could be optional packages for a users unique use pattern (i.e. multilingual dictionaries, business dictionaries, etc.).
