Option to hide or remove account from Freighter wallet extension
What problem does your feature solve?
Some accounts are used temporary for testing purposes and could be removed after some time.
What would you like to see?
In Freighter extension interface there should be an option to hide or remove the selected account.
What alternatives are there?
Looks like it is not possible to hide/remove the account, once it is added.
The consensus is that we won't remove the account from the network, but we can remove it from Freighter. This may be branded as "hide" or "archive". If users want to truly remove their account from Stellar, they can figure out how to get their account into a state where its ready to be merged on their own.
@JakeUrban Thanks for your answer. That's what I originally meant - an option to hide the account from the Freighter extension interface, like it is possible in MetaMask. My wording was not very clear. Understandably, it doesn't make much sense to remove the account altogether.
In other words, "hide" would put the address into some hidden folder inside the extension interface, and the account could be easily added (made visible) again. While "remove" would remove account data from the extension completely (not from the Stellar network), and the user would have to use an available method to add it again. This is my suggestion if it is viable.
