Resolve 547 (Surface "Create a Seed" early on "In-Memory Seeds")

[jdlcdl]

Description

resolves #547

Can now "Create a seed" from:

• Seeds menu with seed(s) loaded instead of going thru "Load a seed", but title is "Create a Seed" and no Address Explorer/Verification offered

Flows supported are:

• flow to it immediately in Seeds menu w/ seeds loaded... and that other tools are not available.
  

• flow to it from "Load a seed" screen IF NO OTHERS ALREADY LOADED... and that other tools are not available.
  
  TY Alvroble for the insight that to offer Create would be redundant (it was on the last screen) and confusing since Create and Load are being separated.
  

• flow to it from Tools menu, and the other tools ARE available.
  
  This is not new, but code changed in this pr does affect this view.

As of e28308c ACK and tested.

Thank you for this enhancement. I think the "Create a seed" option is currently a bit hidden when seeds are already loaded, and this fixes that 👍.

From a functional point of view, it works as expected. However, one thing worth considering is removing the "Create a seed" option from LoadSeedView, as this button just appears on the previous screen. For consistency, I think it is better to have a clear path to each function in these situations, and having these three paths seems a bit confusing to me:

• "Tools" --> "New Seed"
• "Seeds Menu" --> "Create a seed" --> "New Seed"
• "Seeds Menu" --> "Load a seed" --> "Create a seed" --> "New Seed"

Maybe the first two paths would be sufficient. Of course, this is just my opinion.

Maybe the first two paths would be sufficient. Of course, this is just my opinion.

I agree. I almost disabled this 3rd path but at last moment thought "What about users who already expect it here?"; at least for one release cycle until they get used to the more direct path.

I'll count your vote to remove it as 1, my own want to do the same as 1/2, and will wait to hear what others think. till then, I have more tests to get done and am currently testing the current release candidate.

Thank you for your review @alvroble!

Ready for review, but STILL UNRESOLVED: Need opinion from other devs.

To remove "Create a Seed" from the "Load a Seed" menu when other seeds are already loaded? It doesn't need to be here any longer, it was in the previous screen just below "Load a Seed".

[easyuxd]

Agree with you both on removing "Create a seed" from the "Load a seed" menu, since these functions are now separated. Great catch, @alvroble and @jdlcdl!

Thanks for making this QoL enhancement a reality, @jdlcdl!

[jdlcdl]

ty @alvroble and @easyuxd for your thoughts on keeping "Create a seed" and "Load a seed" separated. This particular behavior is implemented as of c3ddd34.

tACK. LGTM

Minor request @jdlcdl: Can you update the PR title to be more descriptive?

[kdmukai]

@jdlcdl can you resolve the merge conflicts?

[newtonick]

I'm proposing to close this pull request without merge simply because it's gone stale. Planning to close after 7 days if no feedback saying otherwise.
