How to distinguish between locked and no account ?

[digitaldonkey]

The common way to check if a account is unlocked in Metamask is a async call to this.web3.eth.getAccounts() and then check if accounts[0] is set.

In Mascara this works fine too. But I son't see how to differentiate between a existing, locked account and a user who never created an account at wallet.metamask.io.

So I can't decide if I should ask the interacting user to unlock or create an account. If the popup is loaded, it becomes clear, but it would be great if I can differentiate between unlock you account and create a new account at the button triggering the popup.

I will also need a different popup size depending on that, as the Signup dialogue requires more space than the TX signing dialogue.

It might be also good if the follow fox would be responsive and only initialized at a window size > 700px.

@pranay01 I prototyped something, which might help a little, but this is not yet solved. https://github.com/digitaldonkey/mascara_wrapper
