Hello!
I'm MisterGuacamole, a new user on these forums. You are all really informative and friendly on here, I love it!
I noticed that more and more altcoins are being made, and it's starting to get really hard to manage them on your computer. For example, I presently have 12 different wallets installed, and it's getting confusing. This is where the "gen-wallet", or general wallet, would interviene. It is a simple Qt application made specifically to mimic the Altcoin-Qt wallet behavior, but with a twist: with a system of plugins you can add "slaves-wallets" to the application (which acts as a "master-wallet"). To illustrate, you could add a slave-wallet for Bitcoin, for Litecoin and for Dogecoin. The master-wallet (application) would contain three tabs, one for each Coin.
In each tab you can do as you would with a normal wallet, that is see your transaction history, send coins, receive coins, etc.
There are many other functionalities, but the main goal of this application would obviously be to have:
No more mess. Organized wallets: organized thoughts.
***
To resume,
I would like your personal input. Would you use something like that? Would you support the developpement or wait until its finished?
It's not just a concept; I have already started developping it. In a week or two I should post a thread on the Dev board of this forum if there's interest/demand, keep tuned!
Thank you for your time and your replies, keep rocking!

To resume,
- Master-wallet that keeps organized the multiple slave-wallets
- Each slave-wallet is a plugin designed for a specific cryptocurrency
- Designed to keep things simple

That's actually a fantastic idea - a multi-coin wallet.
Only issue for me is because of the gigantic size of the bitcoin blockchain, I don't actually use bitcoin-qt at all, prefer electrum, but the idea could still work, as there are plenty of altcoins out there.
So yes, I would use it (for all altcoins). Just have a list of altcoins and allow people to choose which ones they want to use. Include bitcoin of course
