Description

When importing unsigned TokenScript files, at least on Android, there is no confirmation step. It wouldn't be hard to imagine this being used in a phishing scam.

I recommend 1-2 things to mitigate this risk:

1. Implement a warning dialog when importing unsigned/unverified TokenScript definitions into AlphaWallet.
2. Restrict manual import to devices with developer mode enabled. I know this is at least possible in Android. This would be in addition to above to add an extra layer of security.
