I'm not thinking of miners for this feature, but rather end users.

Is two-phase encryption planned for the standard client?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2012-01-20)

Currently, the standard client supports encryption, but only for actions that change its state (send money, generate address).

I would like the client to require two passwords - one to view any information, and another for mutating it (send money, generate address).

Is this feature planned?
