The owner's ruling on #19 is
now in the README, under ExportPrivKey: copying the key leaves it on the
clipboard, because the clipboard is the user's, clearing it would go
against what they expect, and it could destroy something else they
copied since. ShowRecoveryPhrase copies the phrase the same way and
points back to it. Both describe the warning each password screen
shows on next, which does not mention the clipboard.

Model: opus-5-5
