Delete Branch "separate-dbs"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Separating the account from other data for a few reasons:
Long-term, the signing activity will be done by a separate function, even a different app.
When backing-up & restoring, dexie-export-import exports the account unencrypted, and I feel the sensitive identifier data needs to be stored externally more securely than the rest of the data. (It's possible to filter out the identity & seed info, but then the table export has 0 elements so an import will erase the data.) This is one of the main reasons I took this action today.
For internal signing, the private data should be exposed as little as possible; this will allow us to open and close the DB separately for the signing activities.
Hm... I didn't see a notification that this was merged.
