Lots of javascript changes deployed today. If your experiencing any javascript errors refresh the page a few times to ensure the latest version is loaded.

- The My Wallet chrome extension has be rewritten and is now a fully packaged app including all javascript and html. This means it is fully protected from server side javascript changes. Just a fallback to a 3rd party server such as electrum is needed now to make it fully resilient.

- A wallets' main password is now needed to view [Account Settings] if the password hasn't already been entered in the last minute.
- Wallet passwords are now stored in a closure object making them much harder (impossible?) to extract from a open wallet. You cannot do alert(password) anymore.
- After 5 minutes of inactivity (no mouse clicks or key presses) you will now automatically be logged out.
- Chinese transactions up.

BUG REPORT:  After autologout the extension will send you to the website, meaning that you are no longer using the extension JS after that.

Steps:
  1) Login, using the extension
  2) Wait 5 minutes
  3) Notice you were auto logged out, then click login again to access your wallet.
  4) Notice the URL.

BUG REPORT:  When signing up for SMS, two verifications messages are sent, with different OTP.

Are automatic dropbox backups no longer available?
