Can I start a new wallet or switch to a previous backup from existing Mycelium?

When installing Mycelium and running it for the first time, you get to choose between restoring a previous backup or starting a new wallet.

Once you made this choice, it doesn't seem to be possible to choose again. As far as I can tell the only way would be to uninstall and reinstall Mycelium, so you effectively run it for the first time again.

Or am I wrong? Is there a feature in Mycelium to say "start new wallet" (I mean a complete HD wallet) or "restore previously backed up wallet" after you already have one running?

Of course there should be a BIG warning in there, saying "you are about to switch to a different wallet, unless you properly backed up this one YOU WILL LOSE ALL COINS AND HISTORY". But nonetheless I would love for this to be possible.

Thanks for considering!
