AlexMc, your suggestion would go a very long way towards solving the problem I just mentioned above as both parties would be clearly identified and specifically tied to the transaction; moreover, if the option were given to the wallet owner to make the "verified addresses" setting a required default for all transactions, that would also go a long way towards making theft much more difficult (and whoever wants to ignore that additional security level would be free to do so . . . to each his own  Wink ).


I like the idea for securing the wallet by requiring "verified addresses" for all transactions.  This could also be implemented as a security option where transfers/payments to a verified address did not require the wallet passphrase, but all other transactions would still prompt for it.

Perhaps options something like this, where ( ) would be a radio button and [ ] is a check box:

Security Options (Making changes to these options will require your passphrase)

( ) Only allow payments to verified addresses
( ) Allow payments to all addresses
      
[ ] Require passphrase for payments to verified addresses

Note: Payments to non-verified addresses always require your passphrase if the wallet is encrypted.

A setup like this would be similar to the way my Internet banking works, where a payment to one of the beneficiaries I've added to my banking profile can be made without having to enter the one time PIN that is sent to my mobile phone for other payments to be authorised.
