needs refinement and mockups

Implementation-wise, this will be possible from Parity 2.4.1 onwards using the parity_setChain RPC (the changing of the chain kills all rpc connections though, so we'll probably want to do a window reload on Fether after changing chain)

~~Good to know. Do you know if there is any replacement plan? Having to pass the network as a command line parameter feels like a not too nice UX.~~

edit: misunderstood

Our next Fether release will only be compatible with Parity >= 2.4.1 (because of https://github.com/paritytech/fether/pull/394 / https://github.com/paritytech/fether/pull/458), so parity_setChain will always be available on the LC
