Does anyone else find the SegWit bech32 (bc1...) addresses harder to verify visually? I don't know if it's the long prefix or the all lowercase format but it's just so unwieldy.

But even since before SegWit I got used to Ctrl-C + Ctrl-F re-verification - it's quick and works well. Speaking of that - I think this is an error:

After copy/pasting, select "yKxQKXtMc" from the pasted address, then press CTRL-V. Then, use CTRL-F followed by CTRL-V to see if the partial address matches the original source of the address.

I think it should be Ctrl-C, then Ctrl-F, then Ctrl-V.
