Description

Current the security settings such as auto login are per vault.

It might be useful to make these per identity.

For example I might have a dev and a production identity.

For dev I want auto login, for production I only want to unlock the vault as required.

Currently the vault has a single password. This sort of scheme would require that an identity had a password as well.

It would require each command to recognize that the identity required a password and prompt the user accordingly.

We could do this via letting the user create multiple vaults but that seems more kludgy as it would require them to have separate contact lists.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the vault-level security settings and command handling, then trace how identities and passwords are represented. Done means security settings can differ per identity, identity passwords are handled, and commands prompt when the selected identity requires unlocking.
