If I can find a single point in the stake-calculating code which can be used to filter out watch-only addresses from the rest (any address without a privkey is a watch-only address) and I can persuade the wallet to filter out the watch-only txs from the overview and I can create a duplicate of the tx listing that is specialised to watch-only addresses then we could be in business.

Hi Graham, thank you so much for give a look at this.
I understand the difficult as you have so well explained the matter.

I think another workaround to getting that is working at "wallet level" not at "address level".
Maybe, if would be possible to get two wallets runing in the same slimcoin-qt window, differents tabs, one with all functionalities and another one (watch-only wallet for watch-only addresses) with PoS, PoB and PoW and any other functionality disabled. At the moment to put private address of watch-only address it would be moved from watch-only wallet to "active" wallet.

A (maybe stupid) idea from a non-programmer: Could it be a workaround to use the integrated block explorer for that?

I have looked at it, the problem is that in the current client the block explorer isn't able to check addresses, only transactions and blocks. I don't know how difficult it would be to implement checking an address there and list balance and transactions, but that possibly could make it easy to "watch" an address without having to touch the stake-generating code or to even have to import the private key.

PS: Yesterday was Slimcoin's third anniversary - it started on May 28, 2014. Happy birthday

PS2: I'm working on the Slimcoin web site (http://slimcoin-project.github.io) currently to make it multi-lingual and a bit prettier. The basics are done and I have wrote a mining, minting and PoB guide and a Spanish translation from the "About" page, but the layout still must be tweaked a bit. I'm confident that this week I can upload a new version with the key generator linked from the start site.

PS3: muf18 has bought the http://slimco.in domain (thanks!). It will (for now) redirect to the Github Pages site (still configuring).
