Change mnemonic length
Is there an option to change the length of the mnemonic? If not, I would like to create a feature request.
As far as I understood it, the 12 word mnemonic has (roughly) the same entropy as an 128 bit key and therefore complies with AES-128. However, to comply with AES-256, one had to increase the length of the mnemonic.
Therefore my request.
Thank you!
With best regards,
Lukas

Since only bot come here, i think it will never append.
The mnemonic isn't used directly but thrown into PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA1. So there would be more to be changed then just this. Furthermore, there are places where AES-128 is used instead of AES-256.
