Bug Report

Sia-UI prompts the user for their password twice on two consecutive screens. This adds unnecessary complexity and confusion to the new user provisioning process.

This is the UI flow for a new wallet (obviously a seed I'm not using):

Expected Behavior

The "Please confirm your password and seed" screen also unlocks the wallet instead of just confirming the seed/password pair.

Environment

  • Sia version: 1.3.1
  • OS: Win10 x64

IIRC the reason we added the confirmation was that people were clicking through the dialog too fast, and then they'd end up with a wallet that they couldn't unlock, so they'd have to start over from scratch.

I agree that automatically unlocking the wallet is reasonable behavior here. Shouldn't be difficult to implement.
